Excel keeps installing features

Hi,
every time I start Excel, a dialog box pops up with the title
"Installing components for Microsoft Excel" and the text "Installing:
Microsoft Excel Features".
I tries changing the behaviour using Add/remove Programs, selecting
modify option and looked for Clip Art Gallery (something that was
suggested in Microsoft KB) but could not find this feature. So, I don't
think it that is the cause.
I would appreciate your help.
I am using Office Xp for Small Business, Excel 2002, 10.3506.3501, SP1.

By the way, something similar happens when I open Word, except that it
flashes a message or a dialog box and disappears, too fast to know what
it is.

TIA.

HI.
I am having the same issues.
Have you been able to find a fix?
