Go to "save as", a window will pop up and at the top right hand corner
there's a button called "Tools". Click on that and a drop down menu pops up
and there's an option called "security options". Click on that and another
window pops up. Within this window called "Security", you can add password to
open or modify. After setting your password, save your documents. That's it.

This *may* be an indication of corruption of the Word data key in the
registry - see if renaming the key (OldData) with Word closed makes a
difference.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\W ord\Data
