I recently took over as a temporary adminstrator for several computers on a domain, and one of the problems handed down to me has me stumped. The previoius administrator installed Office Professional 2003 on several computers, and with two of those computers something went wrong because everytime my users try to open any of the Office applications (Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.) a pop-up window comes up saying "Please wait while WIndows configures Microsoft Office Professional 2003 edition". This box will repeatedly pop up several times before it finally goes away. It also pops up several times on initial login. This only happens on my user accounts, when I open any Office applications under my admin account it comes up fine. I've tried several things to no avail including a complete uninstall and reinstall, and I've searched online for the answer, most people only had this issue pertaining to one specific part of Office (i.e, just Access), but it's happening for all the applications for me. I'm not very experienced and I'm only in this position for several weeks before the new IT guy comes in, but if I could get this resolved before then it'd be great. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give me.
