Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.

I've been having this problem with one of my machines for a month now, and I
had no idea why.  I think my girlfriend brought home this virus from a 
machine at work, as all of her work-related document files were infected.

By the way, this bad boy apparently works by attaching itself to your 
NORMAL.DOT file, so it can infect any document based on the default template.
It can be disinfected by F-MACROW, a macro virus scanner that comes with

After installing the F-PROT package, you need to run setupfm from the F-PROT
directory to install F-MACROW.
