    Could you tell me what would happen to someone needing to have macros enabled, and if this were an actual threat?

    The likes of Sandboxie, at least would have contained it.

    So, what is caution? Common sense? Only downloading software from trusted sources? Right, as if even security vendors websites don't ever get hacked, for example. An AV? It sure will be of need, considering XYZ user.

    You could add Shadow Defender to your setup if you want to be really secure. It runs your PC in a virtual environment so its just about impossible to get infected. It uses very little memory, and has no impact on system performance. http://www.shadowdefender.com/
