Default Slow startup

But, if it doesn't compromise security to turn it off, why is it
there in the first place?


That's what we've been asking ever since NAV first incorporated the
Office Plug-in. Even Symantec doesn't know.

Suppose I'm in Word and find a photo or something on the Web I'd like
to incorporate in my document. If the Office security plug-in
is not activated, am I not subject to a virus in that photo? Seems
like there's gotta be a reason for it, as the AV companies
have enough to do already.

Just curious.
