I have Norton antivirus running. Every time I open MSWord I have to wait
until it does a virus scan. Worse is that opening my own files requires
another virus scan. All this is wasted time. Can you turn off the MS virus
scan
Thanxs, Len
 
Word does not have a built-in virus scanner. If you're using
Symantec/Norton AntiVirus, try disabling the Office Plugin that
comes with it. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329820
"How to use Office programs with the Norton AntiVirus Office
plug-in" for more information.
