I had a similar problem, called Microsoft and was told to remove
the SAM virus protection program.  I did that and now Excel 4.0
works.  The problem seems to be in memory fragmentation.  I was
told that SAM fragments the memory (don't ask me how,why,etc)
but TOTALLY removing SAM fixed the problem.  Supposidly Symantic
and/or Microsoft are working on a fix (in our dreams?)
