Error message when opening Excel file

When I double-click on an Excel file to open it (example: filename.xls), I
get the following error message:

"A document with the name <filename.xls> is already open. You cannot open
two documents with the same name, even if they reside in different folders.
To open the second document, either close the document that's currently open,
or rename one of the documents."

This happens all the time. There is never a second, duplicate document
open. I installed every service pack I could find (for both Excel and
Office) but I still get the message.

Any assistance I get would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
