Default Configuration in process window comes up everytime I open office?

Every time I open any office component, a Configuration in process window
comes up first. Eventually after a few minutes, Word or Excel or whatever
I'm using will open--What can I do to stop this from happening? I am
running Office 2007, with Windows Xp... Thank-you, AL

The user account which is launching the Office program lacks needed access to a number of registry keys and subkeys that are checked when an Office program is launched. The solution is to correct the permissions for these keys and subkeys.

"Windows Installer-related event IDs are logged in the Application log when you start an Office program"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911682

Follow the instructions under "Event ID 1004, event ID 1001, and event ID 1000."

Warning: If you make a mistake while editing the registry you can cause serious problems for yourself. Backup the registry (by creating a restore point) before you start, and follow the directions very, very carefully.
