    The last two days I have been getting a message from F-prot that some
    of my .doc files are infected with the NF virus. Sweep was apparently
    not finding it, but I checked and I had it set for Executables only,
    That has been changed.
    
    Problem is I can find no other reference to NF virus.

| Hi Larry, For info on the NF virus, try doing a search for Winword/NF in the Sweep Virus Library. In general, all Word macro viruses begin with Winword and all Excel macro viruses begin with Excel. HTH. Regards, Arthur I.T. Security | |||||
