Word 2000 won't start



Recently I was housekeeping on my machine. I have Windows XP and Office 2000
Professional. I downloaded a critical update from Microsoft (.net Framework
3.5) and removed a copy of Visual Studio 2008 PE. Word 2000 will not open, I
get a application hang error (?). I have tried reinstalling Office 2000 with
all of the appropriate service packs and no luck, Word still won't open. I am
at wits end. Does anyone know how to remedy this?
