No cursor or ability to type on a new doc.

Open Word, 2010.

Actually I can see arrow on part of page where margins would be.

And in where I would normally type I see justification symbol instead of cursor.

Typing (blind because no cursor seems to be protected against. Word / letter count doesn't go up.)

Without doing anything, if I right click, paste option is available like I had copies something earlier (didn't).

And if I change through a couple options, minimize page and restore, sometimes the desktop screen stays visible with Word running, like I did a screen capture.

In fact, it seems like everything I am doing is being screen captured. 

Malware free. Repaired and removed Word 2010. Excel works fine. Word Perfect works fine. Tried a different keyboard.

Ideas??

Thanks.

OK, if it works in Safe Mode then we know the problem is due to some addin you have loaded. Now you need to disable addins until you find the culprit.

If you don't know how to do this, have a look at http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/outlook-help/enable-or-disable-add-ins-in-office-programs-HA010034127.aspx#BM8

Post back if you are still can't work out where the problem is.
