Default Conditional Formating Bug when using HasFormula UDF

Something strange is happening in Excel 2003 SP2.
I am using this udf to Conditional Format a cell on Sheet2
Function cf_NotFormula(cell)
'based on http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel...htm#HasFormula
cf_NotFormula = Not cell.HasFormula And Not IsEmpty(cell) _
And Not cell.Row = 1
End Function

When I go to Sheet1 cell A1 and type in "=" and then point to cell A2 on
Sheet2 (to hopefully create =Sheet2!A2 in cell A1 on Sheet1) and then press
ENTER something very strange happens. Sheet2 remains in view and a spurious
entry materialises in Cell A1 on Sheet2 (usually). I've got a small test
model available if you want try it for yourself.

I have narrowed the problem down to the .HasFormula property.
