I have Word 2007 and Vista Business. It was never fast but it's getting
slower. It takes over 8 seconds to open a document and if I have two
documents it takes over 8 seconds to switch between them.

I have tried most of the things listed in the forums, although I can't get
rid of the Acrobat add-in. It keeps re-appearing.

Usually when I'm working I have a small Excel file, Outlook and Internet
EXplorer open at the same time. This was never a problem with Word 2003 and
XP.

I have a Dell Inspiron 9400 so memory should not be problem.

Any help will be much appreciated. I'm about to ditch the lot and go back to
a quill pen.

Thanks

Paul
