W97M/Ded

I have word documents copied from floppy disks to my desktop. I know the documents are infected with the W97M/Ded virus so I have not opened the word documents as this would infect my PC. I am using XP and I know my PC is not infected. I want to edit these files but I need to remove the W97M/Ded virus from them first. It was detected by my AVG 7.5 but it is unable to heal the infection. I have stinger also, but it is unable to even detect the infection. Have you got any ideas on a scanner/ removal tool to remove this W97M/Ded virus from these unopened word documents? I would like a freebie if possible. Something I could download online I need to clean the files as opposed to deleting them. Have you any ideas? Thanks Nigel

Sorry about the delay in responding

If you still need help, Scan again with HijackThis, and "copy/paste" a new log file into this thread.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Is there a HijackThis website that will scan my infected files? Or is HijackThis software that I need to download? My computer is absolutely fine, it is the ten word documents that are stored on my desktop ( which have not been opened ) that need to be cleaned. Can you give me some more information about HijackThis because I have never heard of it and do not know what it is. Thanks for your reply regards Nige
