Every time I start Word 2003 the Windows installer starts, displays
for about 5 seconds, and about 15 seconds later Word starts without
intervention on my part. If I start Word with the /a switch it starts
in about 2 seconds without displaying the installer. I have tried
deleting the normal.dot file, repairing Word, using the Installation
repair tool and then reinstalling Office, all without solving the
problem. The other office apps all start fine. I do not have any
other templates or add-ins installed.
