Another thought, if you're using CS5 or 5.5, is to boot up InDesign and then use the (new) MiniBridge panel to browse and preview InDesign files before opening them, which you can do by double-clicking there. I have a MiniBridge custom workspace that has the panel sized very large so it's easier to move around in. MiniBridge will show previews of InDesign files; at least the first page for older versions, and the first two (or more, depending on what you set in Prefs) for CS5 and 5.5 files.
