why do the office programs configure(set up) over and over?

[Lewisjm]

Even though I let Word, Power Point, and Excel configure (set up) the first
time they are launched, they continue to run configure every time they are
launched. They only should do this once. How can I stop this repetitive
behaviour?

If you are using, say, Word 2007 and Word 2003 on the same machine, this is
normal behavior. For a fix, see the "Hacking the Registry" section of the
article at http://www.gmayor.com/Toolbars_in_word_2007.htm.
