When i open a doc. in word 2007 it virus checks and takes 2mins+

[Colin John]

Please help. When I go to open documents in Word and Publisher it virus
checks them within the programme and takes 2 or 3 minutes to do it which is
so time consuming.

If you are using Symantec/Norton AntiVirus, try disabling the Office
Plugin that comes with it (but don't disable Norton AutoProtect). See
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329820 "How to use Office programs
with the Norton AntiVirus Office plug-in" for more information.
