Sorry, no, all work is local; my machine has two drives and the work is saved on the D drive. I switched my scratch disk to D to see if that made a difference, but it didn’t.
I didn’t find anything on the WindowsXP support site, but that’s no surprise.

search for and rename psicon.dll (i think that was included in 6) the downside is you’ll lose the ability to see icons as mini thumbnails of you psd’s.
Thanks! I deleted the psicon.dll file and now I can save in Photoshop (haven’t tried it in Illustrator yet, but I’m guessing there is an illustrator icon.dll file somewhere). Losing thumbnails was a drag, but I can live with that. I read the discussion below, but I’m guessing that applies to the thumbnail problem, not the saving problem.
I am having the same problem in PSCS. I also see .tmp files being placed into the folder that the file I’m working on is in. Will the fix for PS6 work in PSCS. I am saving over a network.
thanks,
billy
I had the exact same problem whether I saved to the network or my hardrive. This drove me nuts. Over the last year, I’m sure I have over 15gigs of wasted space due to all the COPY’s I have to make because of needing to "Save As" and slightly re-naming the file. Usually if my file is name "file_name_01a.psd" I’ll SAVE AS "file_name_01b.psd" and so and so on. Sometimes I get up to 25 copy’s of one .psd and with each one at anywhere from 5MB to 50MB you can see how over a years time this can add up.
Turns out, it WAS the psicon.dll. My Admin changed it to psicon.000 and now I’ve never had this problem again. What a breath of fresh air. Only problem is I can’t see .PSD thumbnails in Windows Explorer. Instead I now use ACDSee 6.0 to browse all my files and it shows .psds just fine.
