Hope some one can help here:

I've picked up a virus which means that, with Windows 3.1 and Word 6.0,
when I save a document it goes to save in the template directory.
Although I can retype the path to make it save where I want, I can't
save in another format - which is a pain as I want to export work in
ascii format.


What can I do ?

Please email direct as well as to the newsgroups (sent to demon.tech.pc
and alt.comp.virus)

Thanks for any help.
