The macro may or may not be a virus, but the warning can prompt you to investigate the file more closely. One word of caution for those that are using Office 97. F-Prot currently removes all macros when a virus is detected in a document. Since few people use macros this will probably not cause major problems, but if you are a frequent user of macros, beware. F-Prot is able to excise only the virus code in Office 95 documents.
Viruses are quite common and at times frustrating.
However, there is little need to worry to much about the current virus situation. If you take normal precautions your computer should be safe from infection. If your computer does become infected, do not panic. Most viruses are quite benign. If F-Prot is unable to automatically disinfect the virus, simply call the HelpDesk and we will send someone over to take care of the problem.
