When I open an excel workbook (it was attached from mail within the company) I get a trojan alert.  Why?  There is no link I can find, no connections found in data. Doing a ->File ->Info ->Check for Issues (everything) I get a red check on Document Properties and Personal Information.  But I get that on ALL wb's.  the domain in the report is a godaddy ip that we own.  But the wb doesn't go there.

This has got the staff on edge.  It's probably nothing, but ....

Thank you.

Thanks for reply.  I did all the requested and opened a ticket which I think I should have done in the first place.  I don't know what's in the dump and maybe a forum isn't the place to loose it.  Thanks again.  If someone has the keys, please close this thread.
