I have contacted Norton 3 times and they can not resolve issue, I have
contacted Rogers, my ISP 4 times and they can't resolve my isssue so maybe it
is an Office problem or perhaps even windows XP

I am using Office 2007 Home & Student on a desktop using XP home. I loaded
it recently.

I uninstalled Norton as a nuicance and resource hog, using XP Control panel.

I opened up Word 2007 and a "Norton anti-virus" screen popped up with
message "PLease wait while windows configures Norton Antivirus" and
immediately anoth popup screen appears over it, again a "Norton AntiVirus
scree" with the message " Norton Antivirus 2006 does not support the repair
feature, please uninstall and reinstall." with an OK buttton which when
pushed starts the two screens again, and repeats 3 times. Then a clean Word
screen with a default doc showing. And again when opening a document.

When closed I get a Office screen apologizing for a problem and needing to
close

I have reinstalled Office and followed all steps I have been told to do to
rid myself o f this nuicance, but to no avail. I have spent too many hours
on this problem.

Can anyone help

Why don't you just get rid of this parasitic and problematic AV software and
install something that works without such issues - such as AVG, which has
the added advantage of being free for personal use.

Thanks,

My whole purpose was to get rid of Norton. It was the uninstall that gave
me the grief.

I followed the earlier writer's response. Still a problem, I reinstalled a
copy of Norton and immediately deleted it again using XP. This time
everything was removed and I can open Word properly...

Thanks to you both.
