Save As (Not Responding)

Hello,

I'm starting to get "not responding" more and more often when I click the
drop down arrow at "Save in:" box. Also, the "not responding" occurs when I
click "Save" to save a file. Sometimes, the file was saved after a brief
period of "not responding".

I'm using Windows XP Professional with Office XP.

Any suggestion is appreciated as I don't want to lose the document that I've
spent sometime writing it. So far, I haven't lost any. However, I'm afraid
the problem will be more serious as it progresses.

Thanks.

Bussarin V.

Suzanne,

Thanks for the very quick response.

The Title Bars don't flash when it becomes "not responding." I have Norton
Anti-Virus 2003 running but never enable the plug-in. (Not sure if this
information would help) I'm also running Internet Explorer for researching
purpose while writing.

I ran across the KB article I was thinking of, and it's an invalid FTP site.

After rereading your original post, I believe your problem is one I've seen
referenced before, but I can't seem to come up with the right keywords to
find it in the KB. I believe it has something to do with having an invalid
Web folder in the folder you're trying to look in.

I don't see the message you're responding to, so I assume it is so old that
it's been deleted by my newsreader. In fact, I see that I posted answers on
8/27 (two) and 9/1. They were as follows:
