Default Word 2002/XP sometimes freezes when opening in "My Documents"

If it is just the File | Open dialog box hanging (presumably, File | SaveAs
is the same), it is usually due to a bad mapped drive or other problem
object in the Windows Explorer setup.

Not found. Remember, it is not opening the documents. It is the open
dialog box that hangs.

If Norton AV was installed at one time then the DLL for the Office
Plug-in could still be registered.

Search for : officeav.dll

If you find it then go to Start/Run and run the following command:

regsvr32 /u "path\officeav.dll"

Here is a KB article that provides a few additional details. It does
not include information on Norton CE but it will contain additional
details on the unregister command if you need them:
