Another strategy is to delete all infected files, then delete the
NORMAL.DOT file from the MSWord directory.  The next time Word starts, it
will notice NORMAL.DOT is missing and make a new one, free of the Concept
virus.

Or get SCANPROT from Microsoft web site.

Or use Mcafee Virus Scan, which eliminates the Concept virus without
deleting the file (though inactive remnants still remain in the file, and
may be picked up again as the virus).
