MS Office Forum / Word / General MS Word Questions / August 2004Requesting Virus Scan, Word 2002, How do I stop?
Just installed Word 2002 and getting familiarized. I'd been using Word 97. When I open a document now it takes noticeably longer to open. I get a splash screen I'd like to eliminate and then Word indicates that is Requesting a Virus Scan in the lower left hand corner of the screen. Where or how can I stop Word 2002 from requesting this virus scan? TIA If you're using Norton AntiVirus, disable the Office Plug-in.  SignatureSuzanne S.

Where is this Office Plug-in located? In Norton 2004? or Word? I just loaded Word 2002 from Works Suite. Prior to this I was using Word 97 which was part of my Office 97 suite. I don't ever remember instituting an Office Plug-in for anti=virus. >> If you're using Norton AntiVirus, disable the Office Plug-in. > > Where is this Office Plug-in located? In Norton 2004? or Word?

It was in NAV under Options/antivirus/other/miscellaneous. Thanks again. It's always been there, but it "hooks into" only Office 2000 and above. SignatureSuzanne S.
