Default Can't Create file: FAX.TIF...

Faxes are sent from SBS 2003 to a dedicated mailbox that is accessed by
several users as a tiff file attachment named "FAX.TIF. On one laptop only,
running Outlook 2003 with all current patches on a Windows XP Professional
SP2 fully patched system, the user receives a dialog titled "Microsoft Office
Outlook" with the text "Can't create file: FAX.TIF. Right-click the folder
you weant to create the file in, and then click Poroerties on the shortcut
menu to check your permissions for the folder." when double-clicking the
attachment to open it. Ditto error message when attempting to save it to the
file system.

Does anyone know where the default folder is located and named?

I'm guessing at this point that i've got a corrupted temporary file index
that needs to be purged or the pointer to the correct folder has been
corrupted.
