Word 2007 - there was a problem sending the command to the program

Experts,
I have this extrange problem; a user cannot open Word 2007, it throws an error "Microsoft Stopped Working" then when I close the window a popup shows "there was a problem sending the command to the program."
I reinstalled Office 2007, wiped the machine and reinstalled Office again and the problem comesback. when I reinstalled Windows 7 32-bit, it worked for a few minutes but then it stops working. it does it as local or domain user.

Please help!
