Just installed MSOffice 2003. Running WIN XP-Home version. It takes 3.0
minutes for the main office programs (Word, Excel, etc,) to load, then
another 3.0 minutes to load each .doc or .xls file. During the file loading
process a "RUNNING VIRUS SCAN" msg appears at the bottom of the screen.
I want to know how to turn off the automatic virus scan feature.
