Default documents automatically zoom to huge size

Is there a new virus out there that causes word documents to zoom to ludicrus
sizes as soon as you open them? It even does this in print preview. Is this
possibly a new major virus? Is there a fix for it?

Note that documents open in the zoom they were saved. To affect future
documents, open the appropriate template and make the change there (for
blank documents you will have to edit the Normal template). See
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/SaveViewAndZoom.htm.

Not that kind of zoom. I understand that situation. I mean when you click
on open on a document it first shows up normal and then right before your
eyes it zooms to 5000%. Noboby works on a document at 5000%.

If this is Word 2007, I believe you can use the scroll wheel on the mouse to
Zoom. Perhaps you're touching the scroll wheel inadvertently?

You still don't say what version of Word this is, which could be
significant.
