Default Top of Page Looks Clipped Off

Help!!! Ever since I opened up a Word document on one of my company's
internal web sites, empty Word documents look strange. When I create a new
document and set the view to Print Layout, the page (in Portrait mode) looks
much shorter than usual and my cursor appears on the very first line at the
very top of the page. If I make the ruler visible, I also notice that the
page is now only about 7.25" wide with 1.5" margins on either side and the
page length is now about 9" long. I checked the Page Setup and the paper
size is still set to 8.5 x 11" Letter. Does anybody know what happened?

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "White space
between pages" box | OK.

A quick method is to move your cursor up to the top of the page. It will
change. When it does - click.
