For Microsoft Office applications, there is a simple safety measure:
Word or Excel will skip loading such a macro if the [SHIFT] key is held down while the file is being loaded from the File/Open dialog box. It does not necessarily work if the file is opened by double-clicking in File Manager or launched from ECSMail or a Web browser.
For example, to open a Word document without automatically executing any macros:
1. Save it to a file
2. Start up Word
3. From the File menu, choose Open and select the file you wish to load
4. Hold down the [SHIFT] key and click on [OK]
5. Keep the [SHIFT] key depressed until the document has finished loading
