Word Saves Document Upon Opening

In Word XP, when opening some (not all) documents, in the bottom left hand corner it shows "Word Saving." This automatically changes the "Date Modified" in the File Open Dialog Box to the current date when all that was done was open the document. I have looked for a setting that might be causing this and have been unsuccessful. Does anyone have any ideas?
 
This is *not* normal behavior. Look for a macro named AutoOpen that might be
causing this.
