Default Keep getting numbered new documents

Every time I open a new word document, the document is numbered at the top,
(ex. new doc1, new doc2, etc.). Even if I don't write any text, immediately
close or save any changes it still adds the next consecutive number. I am
currently up to document 12 and I haven't written anything in word in a few
days. I can open then close Word right away without writing anything and the
numbers still increase.

Sounds like temp files are not getting deleted. See
http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm. If you're on a
network, it may be that you don't have the required delete permission on the
folder where the temp files are stored.

With Word and Outlook closed, delete the temporary files as indicated.
Reboot the PC and see if that has fixed it.
