Basic: "Compile error in hidden module: AutoFixNew" and when I exit excel I
get the error "Compile error in hidden module: Distmon". When I check help it
saus there is a locked hidden module. I can't even find these modules. Any

Sounds like the PDFMaker problem.

See KB article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q307410

The PDFMaker.xla and maybe PDFMaker.dot are stored in your Office\XLSTART folder
or in the Excel\XLSTART folder.

Any files in these folders will open with Excel.

You must remove them from the XLSTART folder.
