Windows Vista and Windows 7 protect you pretty well from malevolent code in a
downloaded Access database. If you want to be doubly sure, use Bill Mosca's
property setter to make sure there is not startup form and that the
AllowBypassKey property isn't defined and set to False before you open the
database.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Question on malicious code
I see a lot of free sample databases on the internet that I would like to copy
and test to see how some of them work. My question is, if I were to download
them how would I know if the db had some code somewhere that would update
something on my computer allowing someone to access everything on my computer?
I'm just curious if that is possible or would my anti-virus catch it? I figured
someone might be able to do something in VBA that would change a library, dll or
something that would persist.
Thanks,
John
