     I've had the Concept virus and it taught me the value of a decent 
     virus checker. Contacting Dr Solomons or Nortons is the only advice I 
     can give.
     
     Oh, and don't let anyone else copy your Word files, because that's how 
     it spreads.

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?
