Problems with writing to My Documents file

My guess is that it is an application (WinMX) that is initiating my problem. This is the message I'm seeing too much of lately...

Delayed Write Failed - Windows was unable to save all the data for the file x.
The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware or network connection. Please try to save this file elsewhere.

I get this whenever I try and save anything to My Documents folders. Initially it came up while downloading from WinMX. This message will also pop up when I visit web sites. It tells me that it cannot receive any of the various cookies that come my way.

After much fiddling I thought I would just re-install Windows 2000. The disc could not recognize my C: drive. This scared me, since I thought rebooting would lock me out of my computer since it couldn?t see my C: drive. Anyway, it came up okay. All was normal for awhile. But after a few successful downloads from WinMX I got it again. Anyone experience this sort of thing.?I have been using WinMX for a few months . No problems until now. My virus scan is reporting no problems.
