Hello David,

I tried an encrypted xlsm file in a computer with Windows Live
OneCare, and
the issue is reproduced. Excel 2007 pops out a Security Alert which
says
that this file contains encrypted macros that have been disabled
because there is no antivirus software installed that can scan them.
But the xlsm performed as expected in another computer with e-Trust.
Therefore, I think that it might be an issue of OneCare. Would you
mind posting an question to check if OneCare supports Microsoft
Antivirus API in the queue
microsoft.public.windows.live.onecare.generaldiscu ssion? Some experts
on OneCare may help you resolve the problem. But please note that the
queue microsoft.public.windows.live.onecare.generaldiscu ssion is not
managed by Microsoft newsgroup team, so it is not a Managed Newsgroup
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/sub...aa974230.aspx). Sorry
for the inconvenience.

Sincerely,

Hello. I was not getting the message that there is no antivirus
installed that could scan the macro. (This is strange. And this sounds
like a bug in Excel.)

I was planning to check with OneCare, but as of today (but not yesterday)
the macros are running! I don't know if OneCare pushed out an update
that I did not know about.

So, it seems to work now.

Thanks for your help. If the problem comes back again, I'll ask
OneCare.
