I had the same problem with the Acrobat toolbar - it drove me crazy.
Since I don't use the Acrobat macro all that often, what I did was
move the "PDFMaker.dot" template out of my "Startup" folder (located
at "D:\Program Files\microsoft office xp\Office10\Startup\" on my PC,
but your location will be different).  This prevents the PDFMaker
macro from loading when Word starts, and displaying that annoying
toolbar.

When I do want to use the PDF maker macro, I simply click on "TOOLS" >
"Templates and Add Ins" and I browse to an alternate folder where I
placed the PDFMaker.dot template, and add it in.  Next, I hit ALT+F8
to bring up my macro dialog box, and run the
"AdobePDFMaker.AutoExec.Main" macro - and this brings the toolbar up
and lets you make a PDF with the Word styles converted over to
bookmarks, hyperlinks activated, and all that other good stuff that
this macro does for you.  Another advantage of loading this template
only when you need it is Word starts up and shuts down faster, and
consumes less resources.  It's a win-win situation.

Hope this helps.
