Not being able to write

Word won't let me write! All it says is "this modification is not allowed

Is this a trial version that you are using? Has it expired?

Either you have a trial version of Word that has time expired or you haven't
activated Word and it has locked out after 50 uses.

If you're a student with a .edu address this deal is apparently still
going on:

It's been scheduled to end a couple of times already, but they keep
extending it. That's Office 2007 Ultimate for $60!
