I am experiencing the same difficulties in Word And Excell but my HP software
does not seem to be the problem as the MS06-015 update has not solved the
problem. I am running on Windows XP Media Centre Edition 2002, Service pack
2 and I installed Office XP Professional 2002 after purchasing the computer
about 6 months ago. The trouble seemed to start after the initial security
update though. Could it be some other software causing the problem? I
really thought the MS06-015 update would work but now I am at a complete loss.

It then locks up when certain Office programs try to use code that the
third-party software has locked up. It seems to be causing problems in most
Office programs regardless of Office version.
A revised version of the MS06-015 update was released today that
supposedly interacts better with the older HP and nVidia
software. You can download the revised update from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx.
Some people may suggest that you uninstall the MS06-015 update, or rename
the c:\windows\system32\verclsid.exe file. Doing either of these things
will leave your computer vulnerable to the security issue described at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx. You should
only uninstall these if the revised patch causes the same problems and the
registry edit doesn't help.

When I try to save or access a file in a folder, the OPEN window says
not
responding and if you close the open window it completely closes word.
I
can
access files from My Documents in the start window.
I am as confused as most are about this sudden happening with Word 2002.
Went to Microsoft and pressed update my Office, and it did, but what is
the title/number of the update slated to fix the problem in Word? And how
do I use Hotfix to repair the problem? The nomenclature is a bit abstract
for me. Being unable to use Word 2002 is important for me. I just don't
know if the newest update you mention in your post is actually in effect,
and if I click on the 'hotfix' that is the newest, how do I hot fix Word
program?
