Word loading at startup

[Jeanne Conroy]

I have a problem with Word starting whenever I reboot my computer. I have
looked through the startup tab on msconfig and have looked through the
registry and cannot find any reference to Word being launched. The problem
is, this startup of Word hangs my computer every time, making it very slow
to respond. Has anyone seen this?

Hi Jeanne,

Go to following link and download "Startup program tracker" and run it.
Click on "View Log" then look for Winword.exe. If it exists post the
information including the path it is launching from.
