Default Visual Basic Editor opens automatically after lock, unlock compute

Hi, I have a problem in Outlook 2003 (and other Office 2003 apps).

If:
1. The application is open.
2. I have VBA macro code written.
3. The Visual Basic Editor is closed.

Then, if I lock my computer and then unlock it, the Visual Basic Editor for
that application opens up without menu bars and toolbars. This is a known
bug. (See article KB829059:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/8290...d=2520&sid=251)

It's not so much the missing toolbars that bother me, as it is the fact that
I have to close them whenever I come back to my computer after locking it up.
I typically have Excel open, as well as Outlook, so when I lock up my
computer to go away for a few minutes and then come back, I have up to 3
Visual Basic Editor windows open up:
One for Excel.
One for Outlook.
One for Word because it's my email editor?? I don't know!

Does anyone have a workaround or solution to this problem? Any help would
be greatly appreciated, because I have held off from deploying macros to
staff in my company because I don't want them to have to put up with this.
Also, if you don't ever have this problem, it would be helpful to know that
as well.

Thanks very much.
