Keep looking. I bet you missed one of the locations of that addin.
Or...
Maybe the name changed in different versions? I'd look for pdf*.xla, then
*.xla.
Remember to look in hidden folders, too.
And maybe an old DOS command would help (I don't know if it'll work in Vista,
though):
Start|Run
(is there such a thing??)
CMD
(to get to the Command prompt)
cd\
(to get to the root directory)
dir pdf*.xla /s
or
dir *.xla /s
The /s says to search subfolders, too.

Thanks Dave
Advice looked god. Found and deleted the .xla file you pointed at and
searched for other ocurences: none. However, I still get the same problem. I
do have Norto Antivirus but hat was update yesterday.
Any other ideas?
Thanks again

It points at PDFMaker.xla as being the culprit.
If you move/delete that addin, you should be ok.
