Excel file opening in Excel Services

Normally this would be a good thing, however the file being accessed is not an Excel Services file. What's worse is I can't recreate the issue and every other user I've asked to open the file can't either. Screen shots from the problem user though are clearly trying to open in Excel Services and giving a access denied error.

SharePoint only frustrates me when stuff like this happens. When stuff affects one user, it's a life or death issue to the one user so I have to spend time researching it and trying to recreate it. I admit I'm stuck, I have no fix except for a direct link to the file. Explain that one...

Kindly reply to this post if you think you know what's going on.
