Hello again-

I found a similar file at:

ftp://ftp.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/sst.20100201/

I'm not sure what these files are, but they are not grib files which is one of 
the formats that the IDV will read.  In the previous day's directory:

ftp://ftp.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/sst.20100131/

the IDV will read any of the grib2 files there.
