AVP Word Macro Killer, version 1.2
----------------------------------
This program is FREEWARE, and is distributed "AS IS" without any warranty.
See below for licensing information.
This program will detect and delete the macros in the Microsoft Word for
Windows v6.xx and v7.xx documents. This programs also converts the infected
documents from Template back to Document format.
New in v1.2:
************
As an "interim" solution, the AVP Word Macro Killer can
now detect and deactivate the Macro.Excel.Laroux virus. MKiller does NOT
delete or overwrite the Laroux macros, but only renames the macro
"auto_open" to "virusopen". Laroux can thus not infect the system anymore
and Excel will not display an error message when opening a "disinfected"
file. This is only an "interim" solution - complete disinfection
will be provided as soon as possible.
IMPORTANT!
MKiller will not scan *.XLS files by default. To scan *.XLS files
you have to specify it at the command-line:
e.g. MKILLER *.XLS
To deactivate Laroux, any of the following command-line options
may be used:
/d
/s
/a
e.g. MKILLER test.xls /a
If any problems appears while using this software, please contact your
nearest AVP distributor (see the file "dealers.txt" included in the
distribution archive).
Usage
-----
MKILLER [filename] [options...]
Filename and options may be arranged in any order.
Valid options are:
/h - show brief help page
/i - Include subdirectories
/c - try to Convert into DOC
/d - Delete only suspicious macros
/s - delete all macros if Suspicious present
/a - delete All macros
/y - answer YES on all questions
/p - Prompt on removing macros
Filename is the name of the file, subdirectory or disk to scan. Filename
may contain path and wildcards to search the files. The default path is the
current directory, the default wildcard is *.DOC. While scanning MKILLER
checks the file format and scans only MS Word documents and templates.
Note: MS Word installation contains templates (so-called Wizards) with
macros that in some cases may be detected as suspicious. These files
usually have DOT extension. Be aware from destroying these macros! This
operation cannot be reversed.
The default mode is to scan the current directory only. To scan
subdirectory trees you should add /i option.
Filename may contain DOS path as well as UNC, i.e. \\Server\Share\Path
Examples:
To scan all files on C: disk:
MKILLER C:\*.* /i
To scan all DOC and DOT files on remote disk:
MKILLER \\Server\Share\*.DO? /i
To scan all DOC and DOT files in Windows directory, disinfect the viruses
and convert the Templates to Documents:
MKILLER C:\WIN95\*.DO? /i /c /s
While processing a document MKILLER displays the additional info about
macros that are found:
[D] - means macro already deleted
[S] - means macro has suspicious code
Detailed options
----------------
/h - show brief help page, you know that I mean :-)
/i - Include subdirectories
Scan the files in subdirectory tree. The default mode is to scan in current
directory only.
/c - try to Convert into DOC
Convert Template to Document if it is possible. File cannot be converted if
it contains non-deleted macros or Template specific information (menus,
toolbars and so on).
/d - Delete only suspicious macros
Delete not all macros, but only suspicious ones.
/s - delete all macros if Suspicious present
Delete all macros in the document, if at least one suspicious macro found.
/a - delete All macros
Delete all macros and pray for your Wizards.
/y - answer YES on all questions
Delete necessary macros without confirmation.
/p - Prompt on removing macros

may be useful to disinfect the Wizards and other Templates that contains
the virus macros as well as not virus ones.
