Blinkjing Title Bar

Using XP and Work 2000. When I try to open a word
document and try to print, open a new document, etc all I
get is a blinking title bar.When I try to close the
document I get the message, "You cannot close Microsoft
Word because a dialog is active. Switch to Microsoft Word
first and close the dialog" Help?

Try disabling the Office plug-in in your Norton AntiVirus.

Hi

Have you got Tweaker UI running cos this sounds like an option on the tab
'general' +'focus' (stops another application from stealing the focus)
