Closing Excel Gives A "MS Ofice Has Encountered a Problem" Msg

I had an Excel workbook crash a week ago, and ever since then EVERY time I
close Excel (not a workbook) I get the message "Microsoft Office Has
Encountered a Problem and Needs to Close, etc." Then I click "Send an Error
Report" and it does. I'm running Office 11 (Excel 2003) under Win XP Pro on
a Dell 8300 computer. As long as I close one workbook then open another
without actually closing Excel, I don't get the message. It's when I close
Excel that it happens. Consulting the Event Viewer results in "No
information available". The crash that triggered this persistent problem
notice didn't actually seem to have a problem. It said it removed some bad
conditional formatting, but I doubt it. I'm still using the original version
of the workbook that crashed. The message I get offers to recover and if I
say OK, it opens a new unused workbook, totally unrelated to the workbook I
had been using. I ran the Help Search & Repair system, and everything seemed
to be OK. I run Spybot, Ad-aware, Norton Internet Security and Norton
Antivirus, and none of them has found anything except tracking cookies which
I delete. This seems like a bug of some sort, but I have no idea how to
report it. Anyone have any ideas? This message is driving me cookieputz!
