Get rid of some message about macros.

Macros are disabled because the security level is set to Very High. To run
the macros, change the security level to a lower setting and verify the
macros are signed and trusted.

Okay, lets say:
1. I don't trust any macros.
2. I don't want any macros running an my computer.
How do I get rid from that message?

Hi
This also happens when I start Excel (without opening file) from the Start
Menu.
I don't think that I have ever inserted any macros anywhere.
May be there is some start-up directory or may be that
Adobe Acrobat inserted some macros, but I remember that I
deleted those files after the installation (this was some months ago).
Perhaps I am missing something? Well, I'm not an expert :)
(at least not with Office)

I just realized that when I run Excel as another user (in my case
it is limited), I don't receive the warning message about macros.
The same macros security settings are applied to both users.

Look what I found
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART\PDFMaker.xla

I really don't like the idea about start-up folder for an application.
This can be a security risk! Most Office users have no idea
that this exist on their computers. In fact there are many start-up folders
and other ways to execute unwanted code. Especially with Office!
