Default "Running Virus Scan..." question: McAfee the problem?

I recognize this question has been asked before, but I am still having
trouble with Word 2003 hanging when I open documents or start a new one. I
have McAfee Security Center installed and running. I get the "running virus
scan..." message whenever I start Word or open a document, and as a result it
hangs for a few seconds.

I have tried the following:
-Disable automatic scanning in McAfee
-Disable macro scanning in Word

I cannot find any option in McAfee that would allow me to disable a
Microsoft Office/Word plug-in. I do have Adobe PDF and EndNote add-ins
installed, but I cannot figure out how to disable/uninstall these. These may
be the problem.

Any ideas? Thanks!
