Error Loading Excel Connector for Professional...

First let me admit that I made the mistake of double clicking Excel Connector .xla add-in file, before going through tools/ add-in process. Not sure if that is what is causing the following issue or not. I am able to get the Excel Connector floating menu up, however when I try to query the Salesforce tables, I get the following error:
 
The Macro C:Docume~1\CHRIST~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\PK15B.tmp\sforce_connect_for_pe.xla'!sfDescribeAndQuery' cannot be found.
 
It looks like the system is looking for a Temp file that PK Zip created, but I'm not sure how to undo this?
 
Anyone else run into this?
Thanks
 
Chris

For anyone else the that runs into this, a Reinstall of Excel cured the problem.

Rather than reinstall Excel, try luisd's recommendation. It worked for me:
