Docs don't open & temp files don't delete

[Kerropiday]

Hi,

I am having problems opening various Word XP files. When I
try to open these files, Word XP opens but then just
hangs. I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL to cancel the process in the
Task Manager. However, I have also noticed that after I do
this that the temporary file that is initially created
when I open the file is still there and not deleted.

Any suggestions?
