How to download an attachment?

How do i download a supposedly infected attachment from my mailbox?

• when i try downloading the file i get this error Virus "Malformed container violation" found. The file attached to this message was infected with a virus that we were unable to clean. You should not download this attachment. I didn't get this error msg when i first sent this msg (i sent it to myself). The attachment is an archive containing only some pictures in jpg format, no exe,dll, doc or other types of files commonly infected by viruses.
