Thought this was wierd, but I am running Windows 2000 pro
with Office 2003 and all the latest service packs for
both. Ran into a problem where Word refused to print.
Rebooted and un-installed printers and same thing
happened, could not print. Shutoff Anti Spyware and
immediately could print. I restarted Antispyware and Word
is still printing. However when the machine is re-booted
and allowed to have antispyware start during login the
problem comes back. Just wanted to let someone know.

Is the printer connected locally? USB or parallel? What printer?
The reason I ask is that I have a similar setup to you, except I am printing
to a network printer, and I do not get this problem

Check if its application agent (component) that has been blocked relating to

Chris - what printer is involved, and how is it connected? (i.e. is it
local to your machine, if so what kind of port, or, if not local, is it
directly network-connected, connected to a server, etc..?)
