Default Reappearance of 'Track Changes' Toolbar in Normal.dot

Word XP under WIndows 2000.

The track changes toolbar continually reintroduces itself into my normal.dot
after I work with any document that has had the toolbar active. I have now
three times re-edited normal.dot, carefully following the procedures posted
on the newsgroups and the mvp site, to close that toolbar. On first bringing
up normal.dot after doing so, it's fine. But whenever I use the toolbar, or
get a document that has had it open, my version of normal.dot adds it.

This is a solo computer, not networked. I'm the only one that uses Word.

It's only a minor annoyance, but one that reinforces my secret belief that I
never quite have Word under control. Is there a solution, or is this a bug?
Thanks in advance. Tom

The reviewing toolbar, like the web toolbar, tends to be persistent and show
up when you don't want or need it. Follow the procedure outlined at
http://addbalance.com/word/webtoolbar.htm. There is a macro there.
