Default WPEXCEL.XLS file always starts up (blank) when Excel opens

Look in your start folder, it might be either WPEXCEL.XLS or WPEXCEL.XLT

Do a simple file search from windows and when you find it (make sure it
looks in hidden folders as well) either delete it or move it

Can anyone help me resolve how this is occurring, and what I need to do to
stop it from happening.

Evey time I start Excel, whether I open an existing file or just start
Excel, it always opens up a file named WPEXCEL.XLS that is a blank file.

I realize this is mainly a nuisance, but I would like to stop having to
close this file every time I use Excel.

I started noticing this file after I had done a side by side comparison of
two separate files (I was manually comparing them), and my system blue
screened (due to issues with the aircard... this happens more often than I
would like).

Any thoughts or suggestions?
