Office Install should create specific folders for documents

In my work, I clean up a lot of infected computers and among other things
they all have in common a sloppy file organization, including a cluttered
desktop, not to mention poor security, loads of spyware and trojans hiding
everywhere. This suggestion addresses the first problem, when office
installs a user should have the option of allowing setup to search the
desktop and my documents folders for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access,
InfoPath, Publisher and other files specific to office and putting them into
folders in My Documents called, MS Word, MS Excel, etc. On OEM office
installs, this should be done automatically. Another issue is users with
multiple drives may not want their My Documents folder automatically put into
Documents and Settings User, but rather on a separate drive off the root so
that if the main drive crashes, they still have their files whether they
backed everything up or not. Also, with My Documents in the User File, if
someone (a kid) accidentally deletes a user at least the files will be safe
(lots of people I know disable System Restore altogether because of the virus
factor surrounding System Restore).

Each user has differing requirements, that is why each user should configure
to suit themselves
It is perfectly possible to configure as you suggest, though why you would
want all, eg Excel files in an Excell folder is beyond me
