Microsoft patches latest Word
By David Becker, CNET News.com

Microsoft released a patch on Tuesday for flaws that can cause the latest version of its widely used Word software to crash in certain circumstances.
The update, available for download now, primarily corrects a flaw that can cause Word 2003 to freeze or crash when trying to print or save a document that includes an object based on Object Linking and Embedding. OLE is Microsoft technology for creating complex documents that contain a combination of text, sound, video and other elements. The documentation on the flaw includes a temporary workaround for the problem.
The article accompanying the update also lists a number of other smaller issues addressed by the patch, including conditions that can cause text to disappear or Word 2003 to inappropriately launch a file conversion tool. The report goes on to list more than 400 error signatures addressed by the fix.
Installation of the patch is recommended for all users of Word 2003.
