Office 2000 Assistant Locking up

[Ybnorml]

I have installed Office 2000 on most PCs in the office here at work. I had many reports of Excel locking up, and sometimes Word. It could just be that they use Excel more often. These users had the Office Assistant running at the time and subsequently had disabled it. Soon after, they're lockups stopped.

Has anyone else had this problem or have any information on that issue?


Thanks! [sig][/sig]

yes, we have run into that issue quite often and found that disabling the assistant stops the problem.

I'm not sure of any reported bugs but you could check the ms website to see if they have any listed.

It does appear if you do not run the assistant then your system will become stable. [sig][/sig]
