Word documents are slow to open

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

When I click on a Word document saved on my desktop it appears to take a much
longer time to open than it used to. However, if I first open Word and then
open the document, it is instantaneous.

My computer is 5 months old, a Dell Dimension 8400 with 1 GB RAM. No
viruses, no spyware, defragged.

Related to this, when I right click on the document on the desktop, the
options that used to appear quickly, take a long time to displal (Open, New,
Edit, Print, etc..)

Thoughts?

Thanks!
