Subject: Re: Word creating .cvr files

No I dont have any fax software installed.

I have found few more files
WINFXDOCOBJ.EXE-1D1DCAFF.pf C:\Windows\prefetch
WinFXDocObj C:\Windows\system32
WinFXDocObj.exe.mui C:\Windows\system32\en-US

Why is word trying to make a coversheet?

Thanks once again for your help
