word 2003 delete selected text produces y/n dialogue box.

's Computer Specifications

In Word 2003 when I selected any amount of text, char, line, or para etc, one
press of delete key removed selected text..\
I think I accidently changed a setting somewhere and what happens now is
pressing delete brings up a yes/no confirmation box.
How do I get back to one press delete?
Please help.
