I saved an MS Word Document, which was originally created and edited with
"Courier New" font, as a "Wingdings 3". When I tried to revert to Courier
New, the letters were a series of meaningless boxes with dots between. Please
advise on how I can recover the data. I am strongly convinced there was NO
virus attack. Thank You.

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=290978. Although it says it
applies to Word 2002, the same article also applies to Word 2003.

In the future, don't try to use Wingdings or other symbol fonts to
hide information -- the trouble it causes just isn't worth it.
