Umm, you said it was NOT related to the security patch, and now you're
saying it is?

Ok -I've solved this thanks to another forum. It seems that its the
combination of a recent microsoft update and the presence of HP
share-to-web
software. Have a look at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/918165? . You'll have to do
some
registry hacking, but it has cured my problem. I wasn't even aware I had
this
HP software as I'd long ago removed the printer driver, but it was
obviously
still lurking around somewhere.

I can't save files to existing folders... can't even do a "save as"...
the
EXCEL 2003 Program gets to a "Not Responding" state and I have to crash
it.
I was able to save a file to the "My Documents" folder. The same thing
happened to my Word Program. This all happened after I did the latest
security update to the XP program. I "removed" and then reinstalled the
Office 2003 program but the problem still exists.
