Compile Error in Hidden Module: AutoExec

Upon opening MS Excel, I was getting a Visual Basic error ==> Compile Error in Hidden Module: AutoExecNew and upon exit ==> Compile Error in Hidden Module: DistMon.

I tried the solutions on Experts Exchange , but the solutions didn't work. My particular problem had to do with a user who had just moved computers. Her old computer had Adobe Acrobat, and her new one didn't. It seems that her old computer created some VB code in a roaming profile for this user. So, from within her login, I uninstalled Acrobat from the old computer and the errors disappeared from her new computer.

Instead of Acrobat, try PDF Creator.
