A co-worker of mine has an unusual problem in OS X 10.9.5: Whenever he opens an MS-Office document, the document appears on his Desktop as if he saved it there. I've searched and searched and haven't found anything relevant. (This occurs when opening documents from shares on an iomega StorCenter network attached storage appliance and when opening email attachments from within Mozilla Thunderbird.)

Has anyone seen this before and/or have any idea how to make it stop?

Thanks,
