My office 2003 installation started doing this as well, but has since
stopped. I didn't do anything deliberately to halt it, though, so I don't
know that this is your problem...

However, I did note that each time it happened, there was a dialog box open
(underneath the active Office 2003 window, and, therefore, hidden from
immediate view) prompting me to enable or disable an embedded macro in the
document I was opening. It didn't seem to matter that the document did not,
to my knowledge, have any embedded macros. Once I allowed macros from
Microsoft and several other (trusted) sources to run "always trusted", it
stopped doing this. BTW- I never got any prompts regarding macros from
untrusted sources (as though from a virus or other malicious item.)
