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

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
