    This issue may occur when the Temporary Internet Files folder is stored on a server on which you do not have sufficient permissions. When opening an attachment the first thing Outlook does is save the file to a specific folder on the hard drive.

    Are you opening the Word attachment directly from the email? Go to start > run > type regedit : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Security\and make sure that path exists. Set the key to read-only for the user.
