If Norton AV was installed at one time then the DLL for the Office
Plug-in could still be registered.
Search for : officeav.dll
If you find it then go to Start/Run and run the following command:
regsvr32 /u "path\officeav.dll"
Here is a KB article that provides a few additional details. It does
not include information on Norton CE but it will contain additional
details on the unregister command if you need them:

I had previously tried to rid myself of the problem of Word requesting a
virus scan upon opening. Graham had suggested eliminating various dll
program left over from Norton AV. At first this seemed to work but then
actually didn't. I have not been able to locate any of these dll program
or
officeav.dll program. I had Symantec Corporate Edition. This version
doesn't have a drop down list to stop plug ins. So, I have been totally
blocked in every way to get rid of this problem. I have been in touch
with
Microsoft on this and so far they too are giving me the same unusable
information that I have gotten here. Once again, any cures would be
appreciated.

and the problem remained after I removed my antivirus software (Norton).
All
Word programs open either slowly because they are being scanned or
sometimes
can't open.
