Default If I type in 3, I get .003 after hitting enter. All .xls files.

Every .xls file I open or create, this occurs. If I type in a number & hit
enter, that number divided by 1000 appears. This does not appear to be
related to formatting or a formula, but rather some global "setup" or
"options" feature in my desktop. In my office, no one else experiences this
& our IT guys have no answer for me.
I can get the number entered correctly by typing ie. 3.0 to get 3. But if I
type 3, I'll get .003 . If I double-click into a cell which contains 3, then
<enter I'll get .003 .
This could actually be useful at times... I would like to know how to turn
this ON & OFF.
Any idea?
