Installation error 1605 in Word 2002

Ever since I installed Service Pack 2, I have had the
dreaded "Microsoft Word cannot install the necessary files
due to Windows Installer Error 1605" message. It pops up
not once or twice when I open Word, but dozens of times.
I'm pressing that Enter key a LOT! And then it pauses to
tell me to disable Macros, and then I see a bunch more
error 1605's, and then, eventually, a blank document. When
I go to look at other templates, I get the same error--and
then I can see the templates. I've tried doing what is
directed in http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823522, but
it has no effect. Word keeps putting a copy of Normal.dot
into my Templates folder, and the error keeps going.

Please, what is WITH this application? This error is an
amazing time-waster!!! Can anyone help me???

TIA--

Nan
