I have tried most of the MS programs to open this file along with trying to
convert it to another format that  is readable. it stays encryted, and a
window  will pop up telling me that the file is something harmful
Is a .docx file  a virus  or something that might harm my PC???

Hi

A .docx file is the native file format for Word 2007 (and presumably future
versions of Word yet to come).

If you have Word 2000, Word 2002 or Word 2003 you can get a "Compatibility
Pack" here:

Hope this helps.

All Office 2007 files are, are ZIP files.  If you want to view the files in
older versions of Office apps, you'll need to install the Compatibility Pack
and install on all systems that will be viewing the files.
