   That is the standard stupidity in M$ programs, to allow a rich   
   assortment of viri easy access to your system..........   
   Like executable code inside wordfiles, automatic execution of things   
   in mail and word files, etc. etc.   
   Main reason why I use Openoffice, Thunderbird, Firefox, and stay   
   away from powerpoint , word , excel, outlook, to name a few.
