ScreenUpdating Stuck on False

Somehow I managed to set ScreenUpdating = False for the entire Excel application. When I open any excel workbooks the only thing that appears is the tool bars on top because the rest isn't updating. However, if I open up VBA editor and run a quick code,
Code:
sub test()
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

everything works properly. If I save and close the program and reopen it, or any other workbook, screenupdating = false again.

How do I fix this?
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
You might've entered the false code into book1 which is the template or into personal.xls and somehow its running when excel is opened.

Have a hunt around in the VBA Project window and check out all the modules.
