To prevent the Acrobat PDFMaker COM Addin from loading, go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlo ok\Addins\PDFMOutlook.PDFMOutlook
and change the LoadBehavior value from 3 to 2. Restart Outlook. When you use
this method, the PDF functions will still be available in Word and the other
Office programs. Note that installing Acrobat updates may reset the registry
key.

You can remove the add-ins from other programs by editing a similar key, but
it's generally better to use Add/Remove programs, because the keys are reset
each time an update is installed.

To hide the toolbar button, create the OutlVisible value:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\PDFMaker\ 7.0\Outlook\EmailToPDF
Value Name: OutlVisible
Value: 0

The original default Value to re-enavle it is: 0xffffffff
