Re: Excel Add-In Disappearing

Jerry,

Any chance you might have a "firewall" or some kind of program 
protection running?  I know that McAfee Virusscan Enterprise has Access 
Protection Rules that you can override but then they get re-established 
depending upon rules from the server.  Also, could you have a virus 
scanning package that sees it as a virus?  There was a time that a 
McAfee version of Viruscan would blcok icons from displaying.

Odd that it would happen regularly, without running any other kind of 
update.
