FYI, if your running office 2010 starter on windows 7, and apply the latest office 2010 update kb2589275, your word and excel may stop working. when you launch word and excel after applying the update,all your word and excel icons turn orange and if you try to open them you get the office installation screens (activate, buy or try) screen. the fix is to remove the update.

From the programs and features control panel, not from the update section but from the installed programs section, look for a office installation that installed this month.

If you have a wsus server, be sure and decline this update if you use office 2010 starter
