set c = CommandBars(1).Controls.Add(Id:=3754): c.Execute: c.Delete

Not sure if that Id is good outside of Excel 2003.

Microsoft did this so add-ins installed by Admins can't be removed by limited access users. If you want to see all the COM add-ins installed on your system, there's a neat little (free) utility from Nirsoft called Officeins (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/officeins.html).</p> The downside is that this dialog won’t show COM add-ins installed for all users.
