Regardless of the cause, I would recommend storing your customizations in a
global template other than normal.dot. See
http://addbalance.com/word/movetotemplate.htm for step-by-step instructions
on moving / sharing / copying / backing-up customizations including
AutoText, AutoCorrect, keyboard assignments, toolbars, macros, etc.
Your problem is almost certainly the Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Add-In which is
poorly written (as usual).
