Hi Eskimobob ,

Norton AV has a dll named "OfficeAv.dll" that could be loaded whenever the IE downloads some ActiveX or files .

May be this dll doesn't treated well , but what about the NAV guard ? (ofcourse , as it uses most of the resources , users disable it first! ) did u disable it ?
in my book , no antivirus is reliable exactly , for each of the has some disadvantages .
you yourself should protect your system . while all recent viruses are almost only a worm (they don't infect a file) .
Viruses are good teachers !
