2 problems with MS Word, Excel, PDF file etc

My PC used to work just fine.

I have 2 problems with attachments.

1. I cannot open attachments from my email accounts at Yahoo, and
Hotmail like MS word, Excel PDF
file ( adobe)


However if I receive the attachment vai my comcast email address which
drops into my Outlook Express on my desktop, I can open the doc.

2. Once I open the attachment via OE an icon for every attachment i
open gets created on my desktop. If I open the attachment a second
time, a second icon is created on my desk top.

Can any one pls. help me solve this problem.

I have a Win Me, 800 MHZ, 20GB HD and 176 RAM.

Thanks
Tina

Hi
No, I do not see a Yellow icon popup.

I moved the Word program back to MS office. It was somwehere else.I do
not remember where. (For a few days the icons stopped opening up )

But now they are back. I still see Word in MS office. But I still get
the icons on my desktop everytime I open a word doc.

i checked the properties of the icons of Word docs on my desktop.

It says:
C:Windows\Desktop.

So I guess this the problem. I am NOT technical. Can anyone help me
solve this ?

FYI: I ran Scandisk, defrag and Adaware/Spybot.

Pls. HELP !

thanks
