Have a user who's pc keeps locking up, we've tried re-imaging, replacing, but still has the issue. What we are seeing in his roaming profile is his temporary internet files folder is collecting a bunch of spreadsheets for some reason, they are located in sub folders called 'Content.MSO' or 'Content.Word' or 'Content.Outlook'. Some of these files are 100mb in size and I got a feeling this is what's causing it. Where is the setting to change this?
 
Try turning off "Offline Files" for this user and clear the folders. Then turn offline files back on. Just a stab in the dark.

The Content.mso folder is the folder in which Office 2003 objects are cached. Office 2003 objects include pictures that are recognized as being from the Internet security zone. If the objects cannot be cached in the Content.mso folder, a red X will appear instead of the object in the Office 2003 document when you open an Office 2003 document from an Internet location, from a Web folder, or from any location from the Internet security zone.

Note The Content.mso folder is created the first time Office 2003 has to cache temporary files that are identified as being from the Internet security zone. The Internet security zone relies on the Windows redirector and on the Web client path that is used to access the document.
