why is personal.xlsbackup created every time I run a macro
 
I have several macros in the Personal.xls workbook, every time I execute one
of these macros a file is created called personal.xlsbackup for the first
time it's run then personal.xlsbackupbackup for the second time and so on.

Have you looked through the code to find a routine that is saving the file?
Look for something like ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs
