loading excel takes ages

It takes over 60 seconds for Excel to load. I cannot get to Excel by clinking
an Exce work sheet, (it will stall and then provide an error message). I can
only access Excel through the start>programmes function.

all other applications load without delay.

I am using Excel 2003.

I checked the directory and the file states "Excel11.xlb" - it will not let
me change this file (states is Read Only)...

any assistance greatly appreciated

It wont let me delete it (states in use or read only). If this is not the
cause of the delay, would you know of anything else that i can try to speed
up the loading of Excel?

Make sure excel is closed when you try to delete it.

And if that doesn't help, maybe rebooting and trying to delete it as the first
thing you do will help.
