My status bar is AWOL -- Word 07 - Office Ultimate

Yes, it can be removed after the fact, with some extra work. Quoting
from Beth Melton's article at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...514521033.aspx :

~~~~

If you do not use Norton AntiVirus but it was previously installed,
the Office Plug-in could still be registered. For example, maybe you
upgraded Norton Antivirus to Norton System Works or Norton Corporate
Edition.

Use Windows Search and search for the OFFICEAV.DLL file.
If OFFICEAV.DLL is found, click Start, click Run, and then enter the
following command in the Open box:

regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Norton Antivirus\OFFICEAV.DLL"

Note Use the file location for your OFFICEAV.DLL file if it varies
from the example provided.

Click OK.

If the command runs successfully, you will be prompted with the
following message:

DLLUnregisterServer in "C:\Program Files\Norton
Antivirus\OFFICEAV.DLL" succeeded.

Make sure to disable the Plug-in before uninstalling NAV... otherwise that
problem dll will not be removed and stays registered in Windows cause
problems forever.

Good guess Terry, I am using NAV at the moment. I'm upgrading to Symantec
Corporate 10.1 this weekend. Will this take care of the problem?

Thanks a ton!

Well it is your AV that is at fault and from your symptoms it is
probably NAV. Disable the Office Plug-in under Preference in NAV.

The status bar of a new document appears to be AWOL. It says 'Running
virus scan...' and never clears to show Page #, count, word count, and
spell check status. I can load a saved file and it will clear. Is it
supposed to do this? It's doesn't appear to be causing a problem other
than it's annoying. Any ideas?

No, Norton Corporate has never used that plug-in -- probably because
corporate customers, who have actual market power, would never stand
for the troubles it causes. :-)

Hi Jay, it was unsuccessful. Does that mean it wasn't registered and in use
and everything is okay?

I looked in the process monitor before attempting to unregister it and
didn't see a process that remotely looked like it was related to offficeav.

RegSvr32 Alert:

DllUnregisterServer in C:\Documents and Settings\hobbit\Local
Settings\Temp\NAV\NAV\External\NORTON\OFFICEAV.DLL failed.

Return code was:0x8002801c



I was logged in as administrator for the computer, but not on the old
account where I had originally installed NAV. Would this make a difference?
