- AVP Word Macro Killer, version 1.2
- ----------------------------------
-
- This program is FREEWARE, and is distributed "AS IS" without any warranty.
- See below for licensing information.
-
- This program will detect and delete the macros in the Microsoft Word for
- Windows v6.xx and v7.xx documents. This programs also converts the infected
- documents from Template back to Document format.
-
- New in v1.2:
- ************
- As an "interim" solution, the AVP Word Macro Killer can
- now detect and deactivate the Macro.Excel.Laroux virus. MKiller does NOT
- delete or overwrite the Laroux macros, but only renames the macro
- "auto_open" to "virusopen". Laroux can thus not infect the system anymore
- and Excel will not display an error message when opening a "disinfected"
- file. This is only an "interim" solution - complete disinfection
- will be provided as soon as possible.
-
- IMPORTANT!
- MKiller will not scan *.XLS files by default. To scan *.XLS files
- you have to specify it at the command-line:
- e.g. MKILLER *.XLS
-
- To deactivate Laroux, any of the following command-line options
- may be used:
- /d
- /s
- /a
-
- e.g. MKILLER test.xls /a
-
-
-
- If any problems appears while using this software, please contact your
- nearest AVP distributor (see the file "dealers.txt" included in the
- distribution archive).
