If so try disabling it.
Using Windows 7 on XP Rro seems that when working in MS Word 2010 trying to create a windows file to pdf using Acrobat, the above IE add-on note appears and blocks create conversion. What am I missing.

What does that mean? You are either using Windows XP Pro or Windows 7, not both at the same time.
Have you tried disabling this add-on?
I have no idea why the add-on should be popping up when you are using Office and Adobe, especially if Internet Explorer is not running. And http://www.file.net/process/toolbar32.dll.html does not tell much about what this add-on is, except it is a BHO, (Browser Helper Object), which are unique to IE. Some of these add-ons and BHOs can be malicious but whether this is or not I can't say.

Thanks Mark.
Sorry about that. I am running a desk Dual core XP sp3, 97 Pro and a laptop running both Win 7 and XP. Both units have Office 2010 Home. The Acrobat 7.1.0 now states that the PageMaker is missing from the Adobe s/w yet Illustrator, In-Design and Photoshop are installed. Any suggestions? My expertise is only as good as my brain cells and both are debatable.

Thanks Bob,
Could you give me the uninstall directions? I am the wick at the end of this computer stick and I blow sometimes.

There is no known "toolbar.32dll" out there according to google. This means I can't write anything complete and with other discussions for you to draw on.
For now you should use IE's manage toolbars and addins to disable it. If you had a typographic error in your post and it is not "toolbar.32dll" then you can add a correction to your post.

that makes all the difference! We've wasted some time here looking for the wrong file.
That toolbar32.dll seems to be part of a "StartNow" toolbar, as described here;
http://www.file.net/process/toolbar32.dll.html
Whatever you do, do not click the link in that web site pointing to StartNow, (StartNow . com). My Firefox browser security Add-on WOT, (Web of Trust), tells me this web site is dangerous and malicious and their review is here;
http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/startnow.com
You should be able to uninstall this toolbar from the Control Panel > Add/Remove programs. Look for "Startnow toolbar", and for good measure, "conduitengine", but don't worry if you don't have that. Uninstall what you find.
If you have an anti-spyware utility called Spybot Search & Destroy running it's TeaTimer background scanner, disable that first before attempting to uninstall these.
Reboot, (Restart), the computer after uninstalling, just to update system files and the registry, then on restart open IE and go to Tools, (you might have to click the gear icon), Manage Add-ons, and check that it has gone. Whether it is called StartNow or toolbar32.dll, I can't say.
I read your other post about "PageMaker is missing from the Adobe s/w yet Illustrator", but I am unsure if this relates to the same problem being discussed here. If not, may I suggest you begin another new discussion to state the problem and give full details?
