> remote desktop to localhost, login as testUser
> start Word, asks for Name and Initials...
> Office 2007 setup starts and completes in 2 minutes.
> Word displays "Privacy Options", I unchecked all
> Quit Word.
>
> Start Word again... Office 2007 setup again...
> Word is ready for use in 2 minutes,
>
> Disable and stop "Office Source Engine" service
> Disable and stop "Windows Installer" service
>
> Start Word... 'An error occurred and this feature

> Click OK -- Word shows and is ready to use!
