I am having the exact same problem. As of today (8/26/05), every time I
change my view in Word, it turns on the Thumbnail display. While I can turn
off the Thumbnail display from the View pull-down menu, I never want
Thumbnails to turn on to begin with.

Deleting Normal.dot has no effect nor does resetting the toolbars.
