The only suggestion I have is what you've already come to - which is to
remove FP 2003.

I haven't personally experienced any problems in accessing my STS sites with
a PC where FP 2003 (and the only functions that I have found that don't work
with STS are those that have been added to FP 2003 for WSS) is installed,
but I have only installed FP 2003 at the same time as Office 2003 so I don't
have your Office XP Pro / FP 2003 configuration.

I haven't heard of this kind of problem either but with so few people
posting here these days that have STS that's not really surprising.

Sorry to be of virtually no use.
