DO NOT change registry or uninstall Office. As Dave Peterson wrote in "Excel
and Word Hang Up..." a quick and simple fix can be found at
http://www.techweb.com/wire/security/185303742. Don't know how it works but
it
does. Page two of the article gives a link to "Kellys Korner" for the fix. It
worked perfectly.

MS Office freezing during "Open" or "Save as" is often caused by unused or
dissconnected mapped network drives. Simply unmap these drives and Office
should work fine.

Started behaving like this suddenly. I've loaded the updates, unistalled
Office XP small business, re-installed and added the updates again. No
solution. Can open a document through MS explorer but can't save. Won't
let
me open folders.
