Please help. I have a computer running Windows XP Home and Microsoft
Office 2003. Word and Excel opens very slow the first time that you
try to open either program. Once you open one or the other they both
open very quick but once you reboot the computer they open very slow
again. I used Google to look this up to start with and one of the
reasons that I found said that the Macro security by default is set
to high and they recommend that you set it to Medium. I did this but
it didn't really make a difference. Is there anything else that I can
try?

Thank you in advance for your help.
