When saving a word 97 file it appears to save as a
wordpad file. It looses all justification and
formatting. I have checked and verified and it is saving
as a .doc

There was a virus that did something similar a few years
back, but I can't remember the name (FYI only, I guess).
One quick thing to check is in your File->Open dialog
box. Is your files of type set to "recover text from any
file"? If so, change to Word Documents.
Also, what program opens when you double-click the
document, Word or Wordpad? Maybe there's just an
association problem. To reassociate .doc's with Word,
single-click on the file (or any .doc); then right-click
on it and choose "Open With"; select Microsoft Word and
select always use this program and hit OK (or other
procedures depending on your version of Windows).
HTH!
