Altered Close Dialog Box in Word

[SoonerDave]

This may be a new one!!!<br>Everytime I close Word in Windows 98, I no longer receive the dialog box in the center of the screen asking &quot;Do you want to save..... (and buttons of Yes, No, and Cancel).<br>Now I get the phrase &quot;VicodinES Loves You / Class.Poppy&quot; on the top border line, an OK button, and a phrase I'd rather not repeat in the text area above the button.<br>Does anyone have an answers to the following:<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1) Is it harmful (right now I don't have the option to NOT save updated work)<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2) How can I fix it?<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3) Is there a way to find out how it got there? And who that might have been?

Sounds to me as if you have downloaded a virus to your machine, possibly a word macro virus or a varient of the I Love You virus. I would reccomend you update your Antivirus scanner. And run a complete virus check on your system.
