Anne,
If you whole system has slowed down, it may be related to this:

One of the security patches MS released earlier this year could cause
this...

Paul and Tina
Thanks for your suggestions. Always good to get somebody else's ideas as
to possible origins.
RAM isn't a problem - I've got 480 MB and I'm on broadband so the system
resources issue is not (an issue that is!). I'm also not running Norton
as Tina hinted might be the cause - though her comments re the screen
mis-scrolling were interesting as my Outlook folder list is really weird
these days - great grey not-quite-a-box hovers over part of the list
whenever I tru to scroll down.
I remain *convinced* it's a MS fix that's the culprit. Still hunting it
down.
Anne

Hi Guys:
Do you'll have enough ram? I'm running an old computer, Celeron
667mhz/512mb ram (the max the motherboard can handle), at idle my system
with XP Pro uses 140mb ram, when I launch Word 2003 it goes up to 144mb
cpu spike at 6% then down to 1-2%, on a cable modem, if I lockout modem
with ZoneAlarm, ram use goes to139mb.
