Virus on Word while running OSX

J

Has anyone managed to get a virus that only affects Word while still
running OSX? It doesn't seem to affect any of my mac programs, but it
is annoying the crap out of me everytime I write a paper.

If anyone has wisdom to share about dealing with the problem It would
be greatly appreciated.

Most likely not, but from the scant info in your post it's hard to say. How
about more details on the symptoms, Word version, specific OS X version,
type of Mac, etc. I'm sure someone can offer constructive suggestions, but
we need to know what we're dealing with :)

Can you describe the symptoms of this possible virus, and say what versions
of Word and OS X you are using?

Sure, why not? Any of the many thousands of old VBA viruses will affect
Word on OS X.

Re-name your Normal template and see if that fixes it. temporarily. It will
of course come back as soon as you open a document that contains it, so
install and run an AntiVirus to get it out for sure.

Cheers
