Fixing Excel 2007 crash

Been upgrading since my last post so have some new solutions for some unsolved system problems. Simpthoms: First is Excel... after new system installation , installed Office 2007 enterprise and found that everything work fine but excel. When I stat it and open file or double click Excel file (no matter what kind of) Excel start...open files.. and crash closing app. Very strange because I had the same installation on same system (Vista 64 SP2) and it works without problems. So I start digging. Trick with DDE check mark doesn't work - well it stop crashing but more often file not found problem appears. I saw several solutions on MS forums but most of them regarding Excel 2003 and mess up with previous installations - not my case anyway! Analyzing situation I clear understood that the only problem can be are third-party add-ins that somehow incorrectly initializing by excel. So , I have only 2 of them - Adobe Acrobat PDF add-in, and Asus (Widcomm) Bluetooth send add-in.
