Default Excel continues a loop to ask to save default file, book1

Dear Kollin,

It is a macro virus. You can disable the macros by using
Tools-Macros-Security and click on High. Then excel will ask whether to run
the macro or disable. Select not to run.

OR

You can search for "Personal.xls" file in you Hard disk and delete it. It
might contain the macro virus.

OR

Install a latest antivirus and scan all files.

With kind regards.

Bye.

Every time I open word or excel, the application asks me to save either book1
or doc1. I click OK to clear the screen (cancel isn't an option). It saves it
and then prompts me again to save book1 or doc1. It continues this loop and I
can't close the application unless I go through the task manager.
