SYMPTOMS
When you view the HTML source of an open URL (for example www.test.com/index.htm), and you then edit the HTML markup, Internet Assistant creates a copy that it calls "Copy of " (for example "Copy of www.test.com/index.htm"). When you return to edit mode and then repeat this process, Internet Assistant adds the prefix "Copy of" (without the quotation marks) to the current file name, so that your page is named

"Copy of Copy of www.test.com/index.htm." Internet Assistant will continue to append the "Copy of" prefix each time you view and edit the HTML source, return to edit mode, and again view and edit the HTML source. Each copy of the original will represent different versions of your page.

This file name will appear in the title bar of the open document, the recently used file list, and on the Window menu when the document is open. In addition, this behavior will create multiple temporary files in the Windows\Temp folder.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Assistant for Word, version 2.0z. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, copy the file to your hard disk before you edit it.
