Alex,
I was not saying it was your fault per se. I was trying to
state that some applications do not play well with one
another. I have seen where one faulty software installer was
corrupt and when you opened another completely unrelated
(usually an OEMs add-ons) program it wanted to install. I
have also seen where uninstalling one program damages
completely unrelated software.

You state you are running XP- SP2. Is it Pro or Home? Are
you logged in as an admin or as a user? Admin's have more BG
processes going on. Are you hosting this on this machine?
Have you installed Office03 Service Packs?

This forum is hosted by MS, and may be monitored by MS;
however, most people here are giving there input voluntarily
and are not compensated for it.

In a perfect world everything would work correctly the first
time. Too bad the world is not perfect
