Word problems 2003 and 2007 version - they won't work

[Edward l]

hey everyone
both on my main computer and my brothers laptop word isnt working! its so
annoying!
on my desktop PC i have windows xp and word 2003. after getting a virus
which stopped the internet from working i had to do a system restore - which
got rid of the virus. but when i click on word it says that "this shortcut
only applies to installed products", and when i go to word through program
files it says "this product is not installed on this user" - but there is no
setup thing i can press - will i need the disc maybe?

on my bro's laptop he got the same virus and did a system restore - word
works - however it is re-asking for the code - which no longer works, so he
cannot do anything on word.
can anyone help?

You will have to repair Word and for that you will almost certainly need the
setup files on the installation disc.
