'Help' - Cannot write messages Outlook/Word.. Just disappears...

K

Hi.. I have a notebook running XP, Office 2003 - Recent problem developed,
and not know why? Always good before....
PROBLEM: Whenever I try to tpye a message inside a Word document or Outlook
email and press the 'Enter' key to go next line.... my whole message and
program disappears.. That is Outlook and Word programs just close and all
information disappears into black hole... cannot find it!!

I have tried reloading Office and also IE 7 in attempt to fix with no luck.
On using virus scan... this was found....
"Microsoft.Windows.Security.InternetExplorer
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN\iexplore.exe"
Maybe a clue to my problem??

However, I have found temporary fix - If I disable all trusted sources of
Macros (under Tools) I can type a message... however I have to disable all
macro requests each time I open, approx 6 of them. An inconvience... and it's
not right!!
Any suggestions to get a permanent fix most welcome....Thanks a million...
