Default Word and Excel crash when I try to open a folder to get to a file

Both Word and Excel crash when I try to open a file from within the program.
As soon as I click on a folder, the programs hang. I remember setting a
condition for "hiding" my files when I created two additional user accounts.
I have been unable to find that option to turn it off (assuming it has
something to do with the problem). I reinstalled Office XP, but the problem
persists. I have no trouble opening a file if I go to the file first and
open it by double clicking it. Nor do I have any trouble opening a file in
the list of recent files. The only change in configuration that I can recall
is the aforementioned hidden files setting.
Intel Pentium 3.4, ASUS P5GD2-X, 2GB Mem, Windows XP Pro, Office Pro
