Default Hide wbk files?

I would like to hide the wbk files on my wife's computer, purely because she
opens them and then gets confused as she can't edit them and they are not
the latest version and so on. Yes, I know....

One simple solution is for word to set the hidden attribute on the backup
files when it renames them. Is there any way to do that?

Alternatively, can I at least get Word to call them all zzBackup instead of
Backup, so they end up at the bottom of the file list?
