Hi Faram,

See this article:

How Word for Windows Uses Temporary Files
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=211632

Word usually -- but not always -- deletes the temp files when it closes
normally. If it terminates abnormally, they'll be left behind because
there's no code running to delete them. See
http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm for cleanup
instructions.
