Word keyboard formatting - acting strange

[failedreality]

I have Word XP running on Win XP pro sp2

In Word, when you hit the space bar for some reason it looks like it's
jumping 10 spaces, like a double tab.
When you hit the tab key it does it's normal 5 spaces or till the next
tab stop, but hitting the spacebar, the cursor jumps at least 10
spaces..

I have searched google, etc, trying to figure this out. I also tried
uninstalling and reinstalling but it kept the same default settings.

Has anyone ran into this before??

Thanks for any help

You happen to make Autocorrect a Space for two tabs?

I tried adding that to my install of word and it wont let me add a
blank space to an auto correct entry...
