I have 37 (and counting) Adobe PDF icons in the meun tool bar. I had them
(growing) with Outlook 2000. Out of frustration I uninstalled Outlook 2000,
purchased and installed Outlook 2007. I have the same ADOBE PDF Icon problem.

Any suggestions.

In the Menu or in a toolbar?
Right-click on a toolbar then Customize then drag them off. You might also
disable all the Adobe add-in.
Or, reset via the Reset button in the Toolbars tab in the Customize dialog.

I have this exact same problem only I now have 104 icons in my tool bar.
I've tried everything mentioned and nothing works. Is there anything else I
can try to get rid of these icons?

The "customize" only allows me to add or remove items that do NOT include
"adobe."

Somewhere on my searching on the internet, someone mentioned "add-ins"... I
have not added any that I know of. Could this be a source of the problem,
and if so, what does one do to neuter, remove the renegade "add in".
