I don't know what .ODT stands for, but open office opens it for editing, and you can google for ODT viewer for a freeware viewer.

It appears to be some kind of package for Open Office. Not knowing what it was, I looked at it with a hex editor, and saw a PKWare flag at the beginning -- so I changed the extension to .ZIP and I could open it in WinZip.

It's an OpenDocument file - the open source community's answer to .DOC.
I've been lead to believe that almost all current-generation word-processing programs know how to read it, with the possible exception of Microsoft Word. Version 2.2 of OpenOffice definitely reads ODTs - that's what I used to create the file. It's available for Windows (98/ME/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista), Mac (X11) and Linux (RPM-based install), and it's free for personal use.
