When you start Excel, it requests virus scanning for all your templates, even if you're not opening any of those templates at the time. If you're not using all of those templates, move them to another folder for storage. |

You may want to try cleaning up your windows temp folder.
close excel and all other applications windows start button|run %temp% and delete as many files/folders as you can. When this folder gets cluttered, excel can be slow to load. If that doesn't help, you may want to see if it's your file where excel stores your toolbar customizations. Close excel windows start button|search look for *.xlb (in hidden folders, too) rename all you find to *.xlbOLD Then start up excel. If that worked, then delete *.xlbOLD and recustomize those toolbars the way you had them before. If it didn't work, close excel and rename the *.xlbOLD files back to *.xlb (no harm, no foul!).
