Several Word & Excel files are not opening and report "locked for editing by another user"

When I try to open a Word file, it reports error: xyz.doc is locked by editing by 'another user".



I'm using Office 2007 and the errors are mainly with files which are "Microsoft Office Word 97 - 2003 Document (.doc)" format.




Also when I check the properties I get a security warning: "The file came from another computer and blocked to protect this computer".



Similarly, some Excel files are not working. What could be the cause?
