"Save In" Drop Down Box not working

[Scott Bowden]

When I try to use the "Save In" drop-down box in any application it just
locks up that application. I can use the buttons on the left to navigate ("My
Computer", "My Documents", etc.), just not the drop down box.

I'm guessing it's something to do with the explorer shell, but I'm not
really sure how to fix it. Any ideas?

The problem appears to be an Auto-update that has happpened in the last few
days. Both my Excel 2000 and Outlook 2000 have been affected. I "Restored" to
the time b4 the update and viola...it worked. Not too happy with Microsoft
right now as I can't get any updates for patches. Not too sure if it's only
for 2000 products or not.

Mine is actually Office 2003 and it started before this month's updates...
Not sure the 2 are related, but I will try uninstalling that update and see
what happens.
