Hello All!
    I have not been following this area at all.  At uni today we were warned
about the "Concept" virus, which is some sort of a word 6.0 macro virus.  Can
someone tell me a bit about the macro virus's and how I can detect them 
before 
opening documents.  Is there a sure fire virus scanner that I can trust?  Or 
is
the only way to avoid it, to save my files in RTF format or something other
than .DOC
Seeya!
