icey,
Please check these settings for me:
Standard Shield…Customize…Blocker.
You should not have any checks under Blocked Operations.
If you do, remove them.
Also, for now, lower the SS level to Normal and try again.
Lastly, shut down Avast, and open up Word97. If you have a resource meter, open it up in the tray, (or similar monitor to desktop).
See what the GDI and System resources appear.
I want to ascertain if we may have a system resource allocation problem.
thanks,
