Office Add-In Deployment is very dificult?

Hello, i try sience two weeks to create a Add-In for Microsofts Word.
It works greate on my development machine with visual studio 2005
installed.

but if i try it on a naked windows xp machine, with .net 2.0 and office
2003 installed the add-in would not load. If i open the "COM Add-Ins"
window in word, i see that the registry entrys that my setup makes are
correct, cuz the add-in is still registred in this window, but if i hit
the checkbox and press the OK button, and now open the "COM Add-Ins"
window again, there is a message "Load Behavior: Not loaded. A runtime
error occurred during the loading of the COM Add-in". btw. Location is
"mscoree.dll" i' ve build my Add-In without "shim".. and the PIA's are
installed on this non developer machine..

I tryed many things to get fixed this..

My questions:
1. is there a way to get more information from word about the loading
problems? maybe a logfile
2. is it possible to deploy this addin on a non developer machine,
machine wide? so that other users also can use my Add-In?
3. did i need CAS without a "shim"?

thanks for your support, and sorry for my poor english...
