Attached is a Word document with a malicious macro. The Hybrid Analysis report shows it downloading components from several locations, but doesn't quite catch the malicious binary being downloaded from:

http://umontreal-ca.com/word/word.exe

This has a VirusTotal detection rate of 2/55.

umontreal-ca.com (89.144.10.200 / ISP4P, Germany) is a known bad domain. Other analysis is pending, however the payload is likely to be the Dyre banking trojan.
