-> Can anyone tell me if the "Wazuu" virus affects Words normal.dot file? The
-> virus has been repaired but I am wondering if there is lasting effects to
-> this file.  This virus was apparently contracted as a result of downloads
-> from the Internet (not my computer than goodness..) and I found it in 
all
-> of the files prepared with Word... As usual, any info appreciated...
Well I am not sure about the wazuu in particular but if it is a "macro" virus
then it should be completely removed by the cleanup programs.  If you still
feel uncomfortable with it delete the normal.dot file.  Word will create a 
ew
one the next time you start it.
