Default Macro triggers Virus Scanner

I use WinXP Home, Excel 2003, and Norton I/N Security.

Several years ago, I created several macros, and associated toolbar buttons
to perform some common tasks: formatting cells for dates, decimal, whole
numbers, and inserting and adjusting column widths. They've functioned
flawlessly until today. Today.when I click any of these buttons, I get this
message, headed with an Excel banner:

"The file cannot be opened because your virus scanner has detected a problem
with the file"

I have no idea what I did to cause this. I haven't made any changes either
to the macros or to the Norton I/N security.

Any ideas?
