Some people have said that they can open corrupted workbooks in OpenOffice.org.

http://openoffice.org
is where you''d go to download the free office suite.

That used to be one of the recommended possibilities. I have to say that I
know one case where opening a corrupted word 2007 in OO didn't work ... but
we think that was largely due to endnote not playing well with others. :)
And of course, you might lose/change some formatting.

If you can trust the subject and the body, then judging by the extensions (.doc
and .xls), the OP may not be using Office 2007.

But that doesn't mean that OO would work in any case.
