Hi there.
A couple of weeks ago Word started doing strange things. I noticed any Word doc I've created since then when I go to reopen give me that 'enable Macros?' window warning me the doc might not be safe to open. Also when I go to attache any Word do to my gmail account it tells me the file has a virus and I have to remove the attachment in order to send the email. I downloaded a Word template that the company I work for gave me, but it's just a simple Word doc that I was told to put in Project Gallery/My Templates. I notice now that if I open a new file created from this template it is fine, but if I create a new blank doc, not a template, soon as I close it and reopen there's the 'enable or disable macros?' window.
I'm operating with OS X 10.4.6 and Word from Microsoft Office 2004.
I ran ClamXav and it said that all the Word docs I had created in the last few weeks (excluding stuff that was in the new template) contained a virus, I think it called it W97M but I'm not sure. I didn't really get how ClamXav worked and I have no idea where it put the files it said it quarantined, because all the infected files where in their original place. I have since deleted these docs myself and emptied the trash.
Any advice here would be SO appreciated.
Thanks.
