Hello,
Everytime I try and open a document in either Word or Excel 2007, I get an error or it takes ages to open and fails. In the bottom left hand corner of the program it says "Running Virus Scan", so I don;t know if this has anything to do with it. Everything seems rather random and iregular so next time I see the error I will post it here for you.

Can anyone help

Reagrds & Thanks,
Neil

I haven't got Office 2007...yet. Is there some kind of security setting for macros or something for Office 2007 to call up your antivirus?

If Office 2007 itself is saying that a virus scan is taking place, there must be a link between Office 2007 and your AV somewhere?

This problem was on my mothers PC and we are just waiting for our norton license to run out and then we are getting Kaspersky for that machine!

I can't stand norton either!

Thanks

I get this problem when opening either an Excel spreadsheet or Word Doc which is located on the desktop, but not when opening them from My Documents or from a network location :confused:

I used AVG Free
