Thank you for your comments!
I made another clean installation of Office 2003 (now without winetrics), tried
with SP3 and without it, tried Mathtype 6.0c and latest Mathtype 6.9 - the
result is the same - Mathtype toolbar (C:\program files\microsoft
office\office11\startup\mathtype commands 6 for word.dot) crashes Word.
Log for this crash is here -

As far I can understand Mathtype has two components:
1. embedded equations are OLE objects (this part works - I can edit existent
equations and insert new from Insert menu)
2. Mathtype has toolbar for Word (this part does not work, produce crash and it
seems, that it is Visual Basic based).

Thank you! Now I understood by testing that some of my installed packages are
not really needed. Installed only riched20 and the Visual Basic Editor looks
better (got buttons on Toolbar for adding to Form). I have not set override for
riched20 it (default "native,builtin"). 
If Mathtype panel uses VB, we need some packages for its normal operation, I
think. 

Prepared crash log with riched20 installed -

What can I/we do to enable Mathtype panel in Word 2003? In Word 2007 it works
normally, I know.
