Unable to save document!

OS : Windows 98

I received a Word file via e-mail and am unable to save the document after
making a few amendments to it. After trying with several ways to save the
file, the following message window was displayed instead:-

"The disk is full trying to write to C::. Free some space on this drive, or
save the document on another disk. Try one ."

There were no other applications(besides MS Word and MS Outlook) running at
that time. I have:-

1. Try using File, Save As.. but failed.

2. Save the attachment first into the hard disk, made the necessary changes
and perform a File, Save but failed.

3. Try saving it into a floppy but failed.

4. Copy/Cut and Paste into a new document and save but failed.

5. Remove all temporary files as suggested(from MS Knowledge Base KB224059)
but failed.

6. Rebooted my machine and try the above methods again but failed too.

Any reason why MS Word is behaving like this? What does the path "C::"
points to?

Thanks in advance.
