Run the Disk Cleanup utility in System Tools. Be sure to include the TEMP
folder.

Re: can not open email attachments or download any type of files

I had exactly the same problem yesterday when my AVG 8.0 expired. After hours of trying bizarre suggestions off the web I finally just uninstalled AVG 8.0 and rebooted.
Back to normal now. Good luck to you.
