Default Publisher/Word locks up when inserting pictures from files

I have a similar problem. Publisher 2003 hangs up when (i) open new file
(ii) save as (iii) insert picture from file (clip art is OK). This started
to happen ths week (April 19) after I had installed the latest microsoft
windows updates. I have re-installed Publisher but no change. I have also
used the system restore (to April 1) and this did clear the problem with
Publisher but left me with problems with McAffee virus scan so I cancelled
the restore.

Inserting clip art works ok but inserting pictures from files causes Pub 2003
to lock up. Has been working fine up to some time this month. Save As also
causes lock up depending on file(?). Same problem in Word 2003. Pub 2000
& Word 2000 on same computer are ok. Norton's antivirus can not find
anything
nor was anything indicated by spy sweeper. Uininstalled Office 2003 and re-
installed - no help. Using an HP 3GHz Windows XP for home editions on a
small office net with one other computer (compaq), cable modem and two
printers. This has been working since last December. However the network
was installed last month. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Beacon Ed was very recently heard
to utter:

Perhaps, then, you should read Mary's post in this thread, which deals with
problems caused by the rogue update.

Mr. Bennet,
Thank you for saving me the time to respond to Beacon Ed. I might however,
have been a little less condescending in my reply.

Different strokes for different folks...

(I don't mean to be condescending - it can just happen sometimes)
