Default Can't find Publisher Templates

I had Front Page from an earlier Office version installed. I have removed it
but I still don't have any Templates for Publisher. I do however have the
folder now, with the test template I created but where are the templates that
come with Publisher? I have done detect and repair, done a complete reinstall
but still nothing.

I don't know if Norton has anything to do with templates, but you might try disabling
"script blocking" within Norton.

Did you have an earlier version of Office on your computer?
During the upgrade process, the templates that were installed by Office 2003 are
mistakenly identified as being installed by an earlier version of Office and are
removed.
In the control panel, Add/Remove programs, click Microsoft Office 2003, click change,
click Repair Office, click next and complete the setup.

I cannot find my templates in Publisher 2003. I have not changed the
default location in Word, I have reinstalled Office 2003 through advanced
install and chosen everything but I still have no templates, not even a
template link in the task pane. I saved a test publication as a template and
it went into the template folder, closed out of Publisher and when I came
back in, still nothing to do with templates in the task pane but the template
I saved is in the templates folder, just no way to use it without opening
and using the original, which sort of defeats the purpose of templates. I'm
more than
frustrated as I have been searching for over two hours on MS knowledge data
base, called 'Customer Support' (NOT) only to be told that my product key
doesn't even cover me for one simple help issue, etc. I'm hoping someone in
the newsgroup can help me solve this. I've also lowered my security level in
options thinking that's why they were hiding but nothing came from that.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.
