Default The .xlb File That Wouldn't Die!

Recently migrated from Excel 2000 / Win 2000 to Excel 2002 / Win XP (but not
by choice : )

I saved and moved my old .xlb file over to the new PC and Excel 2002 is
using it, but I now cannot make any menu changes that will persist, nor can
I get rid of the .xlb.

I've tried deleting it before opening Excel, but when I open Excel, the
customizations are there. I tried opening Excel, deleting the .xlb and
changing the menu, but the .xlb that is created when I close the spreadsheet
doesn't have any of the changes.

Where is Excel storing this info and how can I kill it!!!!!!!

I even tried deleting and re-installing Excel, then making sure there was no
..xlb in C:\ (yes, I checked in hidden folders) - and it still came back....
(sigh)

Thanks in advance for any help!
