Macro Viruses
Could someone tell me how macro viruses turn off the macro protection, on Word for example?
Also, is there any way to view the macro code before opening a file to look for the 'turn protection off' code, otherwise wouldn't you just have to chance it, even if it scanned OK with a virus checker?
Thanks in advance.

if it scanned ok it should be fine. also, the only time it can turn off the protection is after you have already given it permision to run the macro.

bleh, keep updates of your vx scanner
And in Ms Word (the new one)
#Goto Tools and security, make sure its on high!, norton comes wiht a feature, that when u open a document u see "Requesting virus Scan", this will remove any vicious macro`s, also if a document has macro`s (this comes from older versions) it asks u if u want to turn it on or leave it off. and im sure theirs an option in Word to do this.
