The flashing title bar and Taskbar button indicate that the Save As dialog
has opened behind the Word document window and is awaiting a response from
you. According to MVP Beth Melton:

This can be caused by one of two issues:

1. Word is started by using the Quick Launch toolbar in the Windows Taskbar.

2. Norton AV is creating a conflict.

Fix for Issue 1. Obtain SP2 for Office XP. Note that SP1 needs to be
installed first. As a workaround, do not use the Quick Launch bar to start
Word.

Fix for Issue 2. Disable the "Office Plug-in" option in Norton. Go to
"Options" and then select the "Miscellaneous" section.
