Default Convert Works wps to word received error

If you have old Works documents, the converter supplied with Word 2007 (not
07 which is something different) may not be able to open them. It caters
only for Works versions 7-9. The one you have downloaded appears to handle
version 6 also. You can add the older converters (Works versions older than
6) from the downloads page of my web site.

I received nothing but
"ÐÏ à¡± á þÿ

Does this mean the works file to too old or is it corupt?
