how can I access web downloads without office 360

I am very annoyed that I can't download documents from the web without buying office 360. I use office 2003 which suits me fine. I should be able to download the document, then "open with" office 2003. please tell me how.

I think you're doing something wrong. You won't need an Office 360 subscription to open/download documents from the web. What message do you get when attempting to download the file?
