    Why do I have all the weird problems?

    I'm in a dual monitor configuration with Parallels (Win XPSP3) on one display in Coherence and Word 2008 on the other, though I don't know if dual monitor is part of the problem. Oftentimes when I perform a simple action in Windows, such as opening a program or accessing a dialog box, my Word file windows automatically resize themselves to a very small size, about a quarter of the size of the window beforehand. I'm constantly resizing my Word windows back to their original size.

    Why would an operation in Windows have any affect at all on a Mac OS X application?

    Is it only Word, or another software also shows such behavior?

    I'm only seeing it with Word 2008 (12.1.3). Very weird.
