Hi, 
I have just resolved similar problem. (for all MS Office products)

Faulting application excel.exe, version 11.0.5612.0, stamp 3f39ff9d,
faulting module mso.dll, version 11.0.5606.0, stamp 3f334cce, debug? 0,
fault address 0x002277f8.

The reason is that one of our sysadmins removed Security access for
"domain users" to the drive on the server where were stored users'
profiles and Documents.
By adding "domain users" or "everyone" to ACL with simple rights the
error did not appear anymore.

Hi Guys,

I recently had the same problem following reinstall of Excel 2000 onto
my new computer. 

Check the following thread
http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/thread-1793028.php

I tried it and it worked for a while then crashed again.

Following the logic that the XLB files were becoming corrupted I
deleted all add-ons from the system (using Add/Remove Office Features),
especially those with VBA, noted in the title. I followed the logic that
[Support for Excel 2000 is discontinued except for security updates |
Security updates are patching anything with VBA content (esp. add-ons) |
there is a strong possibility that changes to add-on format will cause
cooruption of customization file]. 

I have now had 2 beautiful event free days.
