I'm  not sure if this is your problem, but I found using MS products, that 
when I moved from IE6 to IE7 it was more sensitive to the formatting of the 
URI.
In particular 
	file:/C:/dirname/filename.csv
would fail.  The URI should be
	file://C:/dirname/filename.csv

(Double backslash after file: not single)

No idea if this is your problem, but it was a problem I have had.
