Macros issue with MS Word

Hi all, I thought I'd make my first post a real challenge.

Everytime I open MS Word I get a series of messages that state the following:

The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macro language support. When this software was installed, you (or your administrator) chose not to install support for macros or controls.

I have looked on MS website for the fix, tried what they recomend.
1. Install VBA support
2. Enable VBA
3. Made sure the security settings were set to trust all add-ins

I even did a reinstall of Office 2003. It does not matter how I open MS Word I get the messages everytime. It does not matter which user logs on, it happens to all users.

Thanx in advance.

What are you using for an antivirus/security package? Check its settings carefully, it may have an Office plugin that's blocking them.

To refine on what glc said check to see if Active X is blocked.

That doesn't show us any of the settings.
