Also check Tools>Templates and Addins and see if anything is running in
there.

What is MSFilter.dot anyway?  It may not cause this when you "open" it, but
it sure could be causing it since it's in your startup folder (since using a
template as a template and opening a template are totally different
things)....do you know how it got there and what it is?

If you can't locate any fields like Ray suggests, then maybe you need to
closely examine the documents where this happens and see if you can find the
common denominator.

You running Adobe Acrobat?  Norton AV?  Both of them have plug-ins for
Office that can cause this also.

The most common culprit for this is a field. If your document has a
field for - say - the date of the letter or a 'last printed' time, this
will update on openeing and trigger the need for a 'save changes'
dialogue.
