    I just did a clean install of vista home premium and installed MS Office Pro 2003. When I open word, it takes about 3-5 secs to show a blank document after the license screen. My question is when the rest of the office applications open up in a flash, why does word take a small amount of delay in launching?

    I had seen that article before. But none of the causes mentioned there apply to me. Any other thought?
