Word, save as, save in, frozen afterwards

[Guest]

In Word, even Excel and Powerpoint, I tend to get frozen when I select File,
Save as, and select the drop down to select the drive/folder I want to save
in. It freezes about 3-4 minutes then it's fine after that.
I have checked that I have all current office updates and this does not tend
to happen with notepad files.

I have Windows 2000 OS and Word 2002 SP3. This is in a network environment
and it only occurs on one user machine. Any suggestions? Thanks!
