Concept virus(?)

[Earl Young]

     I would look at the virus center pages at Symantec (www.symantec.com). 
      Symantec bought the Norton company a couple of years ago, and produce 
     the Norton anti-virus package.  They have routines for Word macro 
     virus problems.  There are other anti-virus routines (MacAfee being 
     one) but I stay with Norton merely because they have always been 
     adequate.  Other people stay with MacAfee for the same reason.
     
     There are lots of interesting items on their anti-virus page and they 
     accept emails.  They will know whether this has been seen before and 
     how to fix it.

We have picked up a virus which appears to only effect WORD by preventing 
docs being saved in any other directory bar the templete directory, which 
is write protected. Has this effected anyone else or does anyone have any 
advice?  We also have the odd reappearance of a moving text on the menu 
bar (Win 95) which appears for apx. 5 seconds every third or so day, and 
in part ends with "Bandang, Indonesia".  Microsoft can't (or won't) help. 
Any suggestions?
