All of a sudden I'm getting exclamtion points on the Word document icons.
Even the .doc and .docx files. Why is there a red exclamation point on my
word document icons?

That isn't something Word does.

Do you use an online backup service, such as Mozy? If so, that icon
could mark files that haven't been backed up yet.

Some Symantec programs, such as System Center, mark icons that way
(http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security.nsf/docid/2001031510414248).
