Starting Word or PowerPoint gets the "processes" tab of the task manager to go a little crazy, but it's hard to say what exactly it's doing. You should see WinWord.exe near the top, and the anti-virus will probably kick in too. Nothing else.
It sounds like you have a fairly new machine...FYI on my LAPTOP at work WinWord starts in less than 1 second.

I'm jealous! Less than 1 second?! I've got a Dell 8200, 512MB RAM, purchased in June 2002. 74.5 GB local disk. I'm using 13.3 GB.
