I did a bit of Googling around and found that this has been reported on
a number of different forums: Opening Word and Outlook together causes
the whole system to run slow. I didn't find anything that explained how
to solve the problem.
So it doesn't seem to be a problem with Stata.
What I did do was run a registry cleanup (there are various programs
around that do this) and this seems to have fixed the problem.

I have a similar problem.
Stata 11IC, Windows 7 64 bit, 4GB RAM
MS Word 2007
I can't be sure, but it seems to me that this has only been apparent in
the last couple of weeks.
Also I don't think that it's necessarily a Word/Stata interaction
problem. I've noticed that when I have a few programs open (Stata,
Ultraedit, Acrobat, etc) everything is OK, but if I open Word,
everything starts running painfully slow.
I'm wondering if it's being caused by a recent update from Microsoft.

Dear Statalist
Whenever I use Stata while MS Word is open I find typing in the do file
editor becomes excruciatingly slow. When I close Word normal service is
resumed. I have searched around for solutions but to no avail.
I am on Stata 11MP, Windows 7 64 bit, 8Gb ram.
Incidentally, I also notice a slight degradation in performance when
Word and Notepad are open and I am typing in Notepad - although not to
the same extent as that seen in Stata - suggesting this is not Stata
specific.
Has anyone else here experienced similar and also found a cure? My
apologies for bothering Statalist with what is most likely not a
Stata-specific issue.
Simon
