My status bar is AWOL -- Word 07 - Office Ultimate
The status bar of a new document appears to be AWOL. It says 'Running virus
scan...' and never clears to show Page #, count, word count, and spell check status. I can load a saved file and it will clear. Is it supposed to do this? It's doesn't appear to be causing a problem other than it's annoying. Any ideas? -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal |

Well it is your AV that is at fault and from your symptoms it is probably
NAV. Disable the Office Plug-in under Preference in NAV. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "Howard Cross" wrote in message ... The status bar of a new document appears to be AWOL.

But the culprit is probably your antivirus software, not Word. If it's Norton AV, you can turn off the Office module in Norton's "Miscellaneous" menu -- it doesn't really add anything to your safety that the regular AV check isn't already doing.

Good guess Terry, I am using NAV at the moment. I'm upgrading to Symantec
Corporate 10.1 this weekend. Will this take care of the problem? Thanks a ton! -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ...

Hi JoAnn, I'm aware of this philosophy. I've been using Norton products
since I started with Norton Commander in DOS days and have never had any real complaints about the products. I suspect there's always a first time for everything. -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ... Norton and Symantec are the same company.

I too used to be a Norton user but when they started jacking up the costs
for the update renewal from $5 a year to $20 within two years and then stopped supporting the version I owned, I dumped them. I've heard it's even higher now. Plus there are the issues caused by Symantec programs. I have enough issues in my life without adding more. -- JoAnn Paules Microsoft MVP - Publisher How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "Howard Cross" wrote in message ...

Yes, it can be removed after the fact, with some extra work. Quoting
from Beth Melton's article at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...514521033.aspx : ~~~~ If you do not use Norton AntiVirus but it was previously installed, the Office Plug-in could still be registered. For example, maybe you upgraded Norton Antivirus to Norton System Works or Norton Corporate Edition. Use Windows Search and search for the OFFICEAV.DLL file. If OFFICEAV.DLL is found, click Start, click Run, and then enter the following command in the Open box: regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Norton Antivirus\OFFICEAV.DLL" Note Use the file location for your OFFICEAV.DLL file if it varies from the example provided.

No, Norton Corporate has never used that plug-in -- probably because
corporate customers, who have actual market power, would never stand for the troubles it causes. :-) On Sun, 3 Jun 2007 15:29:26 -0400, "Howard Cross" wrote: Will this plug-in be in use as part of Symantec Antivirus 10.1 (Corp Edition)? -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal "Jay Freedman" wrote in message .. .
