Default Cursor position defaults appears in the Header space on New Docume

I installed Office 2003 and when I went to use Word, the cursor is placed
right up against the top of the page and in the header space. If I type
characters and then print, they are positioned properly on the page (i.e.
below the header) and note that the header is blank. However, on screen,
those characters show in the header area of the page. (Note that the headers
is unused / blank).

If I select the header (as in, wanting to put detail into it) and then close
the Header/Footer toolbar, then the cursor goes to its usual starting place,
i.e. below the header area. Even if I do this and put nothing in the header,
the cursor still moves to the correct position so the process or selecting
the header and closing it is sufficient to put the cursor in the correct
place.

Any ideas?
