    I'm kinda grasping at straws, but there are a couple things you could do.

    First, try (with all office applications closed) deleting all the office
    plist files and the "Microsoft" folder in the Preferences. Be sure to empty
    the trash before restarting.

    Another thing to check for is in the login items (jaguar) or user startup
    items (panther) kill any microsoft daemons that are running, then restart
    the computer.

    I think you mentioned that you repaired permissions using Disk Utility. If
    these steps don't help I've run out of suggestions.
