A virus has wrecked my MS Word 10.0 - how do I fix it?

[John Shuster]

A virus infected Word document made it past my freshly-updated Norton
Antivirus.

My version of MS Word 10.0 is from my MS Works Suite 2003.

When I start up MS Word, it goes directly into Install mode, then starts up
the program.

I have run my Norton anti-virus again with no virus detected, but I fear the
virus is still there.

I tried to uninstall MS Word using my original disks and Control Panel, but
the virus won't let me uninstall and reinstall MS Word.

So I'm stuck.

Any ideas of how I can resolve this situation?

Respectfully,

I'd suggest posting this to a newsgroup related to Word.

This newsgroup is for questions about setting up and configuring Access, the
database product that's part of Office Professional.
