when I open a particular spreadsheet. It's password protected, after keying
the password and open the file, this appears: [pn":ECLAtraeCekokxs)

What is this? Is the file infected? Help please.

I'm thinking you have Speech Recognition enabled.

Your description and the pn:xxxxxxxxxxxxx leads me to believe this.

Google on speech recognition to find posts with the same problem.

Resolution: I have no ideas other than disable the SR Toolbar.

I was sent a file once with the pn:xxxxxxxxx showing in a cell. I just
deleted it and it never came back. The person who sent it told me it kept
coming back whenever he opened the file until he disabled the SR.
