Previously-posted nonsense from Chase Kawakami...
% The computers in question have been running fine for quite awhile and only 
% recently they have been turning up alot of lost clusters, invalid directory
% entries, and generally screwed up directory structures.  This happens when I
% norton disk doctor the drive.  On one machine the word exe file was corrupted
% so maybe that was the problem but on the other machines the word files seem
% to be fine.

I've been having a similar problem to what you describ, except I just get 
corrupted files and lost clusters (no directory screw-ups).  This 
happened around the time I installed QEMM 7.03.  Soon afterward, I 
installed Winword 6, so I'm not sure which is to blame.  Perhaps it's a 
combination of the two programs?
