MS Office 2007 Configures at Every Launch

[DM]

Athlon 1.2GHz, 640 MB RAM, WinXP SP3, Office 2007 Student and Teacher
SP1

I've just re-installed XP from scratch. Office 2003 was previously
installed but I decided to install Office Student and Teacher 2007
after a completely new install of the OS. The products have been
activated.

Every time I start Word or Excel, but not Outlook, which I installed
separately since it's not part of MS Office S&T, a dialog is displayed
advising that the MSInstaller is configuring the application. I've
search the newsgroup for previous posters, and found similar problems
dated over a year ago but not exactly my situation.

I've check the Event Viewer but there are no errors. The only
relevant entries state that MSInstaller has successfully configured
the various components of Word or Excel, every time I launch the app.

I have Office 2007 Enterprise on my Vista notebook.

I installed Frontpage 2003. Right after that, all of my office progs started
"configuring" whenever I start the program - Outlook, Excel, Word, even FP
2003.

I uninstalled FP 2003 and it still did this.

I used the program you linked to, and now Outlook 2007 opens normally, but
the other Office programs still "configures" whenever I open them.

Please help!

TIA
