Default Rash of corrupted documents

We are using Word 2003 SP1 and Windoze XP Pro SP2. Several members of my
group have had corrupted documents recently on their own computers and
installations of Word, so this could be a bug in Word although the documents
are often shared among the several computers.

Fortunately, the Word repair document in the open menu seemed to fix the
problem. The interesting symptom is the corrupted documents increased to
approximately 10X the size of the uncorrupted documents. It is interesting
because this problem seems to be new. We don't use master documents and we
have fast saves turned off.

Any suggestions on how to report this bug will be appreciated. There are no
diagnostics when opening the document, just the statement that the document
'may' be corrupt. I have a copy of the corrupted document if any would like
to take a look at it.

Best wishes,

Pete
