11 This plugin is designed to crudely (but so far, effectively) identify VBA/OLE2 Macros embedded in Microsoft Word and Excel Documents by looking at a signature in the file only present when VBA Macros are used and allows you to assign a configurable score to these documents such that other factors can contribute to an overall score before considering the email spam.
