Error message when starting Word

[Chuck]

When I click on a Word 2003 document, as the program loads I get the
following error message:

"The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open. Click OK and
close the open dialog boxes to continue."

This only happens when I click on a Word doc to open Word that way. If I
start Word and then select a file to load, I do not get this error message.

As far as I can tell, there are no "dialog boxes" open. Could this be a
problem with Norton Antivirus attempting to scan a file before it loads?

Thanks for any help that you can provide.

You guessed it! Disable the Office Plugin that comes with
Symantec/Norton AntiVirus. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329820
