Default opening word from IE

I have windows xp, IE 7 and word xp.

I have set my computer up so Word links are opened in the Word program, not
IE (my computer | tools | folder options | File types | Doc | Advanced and
unchecked "browse in same window").

The Journaling in Outlook is turned off.

The word opens in its own window just fine. My problem is closing the Word
application. Instead of immediately closing, it takes about 2-3 mins for the
application to close.

Is this normal? Is there anything else I can do to speed up the closing?
For users, they think there is something wrong and will force the close every
time.

This only happens if I open a word doc from a weblink. Opening and closing
word doc from the network or local drive works fine.

Any suggestions?
