I use word 97 ( I know - but it does all I need). It worked fine until i dowloaded ie7. Now as soon as I open it up it cyles every 8s ecs between % and 100% CPU utilization & my laptop sound like a jumbo taking off - any ideas?
I removed ie 7 - no change ( so put it back)
have reloaded WORD - no change.
There is also a related issue with OL express where it is now impossible to write an email if there is another email open or minimised. Every few secs the focus switches to the 1st email opened.
I'm at the "bin it" stage - so all help graetefully receive.

but it was an actual word file that had some macro in it - causing 100% CPU utllisation. It seems strange that it occured after downloading IE7 (What on earth possessed you?) and having done so, it downloaded some dependency thatris not removed by the un-installation routine.
