Is your virus scanner integrated into Office? That might be something to
check.
Does it also take this long if you open the program via their shortcuts
in the Start Menu?

Yes, all the ones over which I have control I have made inactive. That's all
of them in Excel and all but one--Person Name (Outlook e-mail recipients)--in
Word. (I also disabled all the plug-ins in Outlook when that was running
slowly, and that seemed to solve the problem). I'm still having the strange
problem with Word and Excel however.

Are you sure all add-ins are disabled including any template based ones?
