Never mind, folks...turns out we had a faulty setting in
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell 
Folders\Cache and
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell 
Folders\Cache  (was set to C:\\temp rather than C:\temp...Excel 2007 
and/or IE7 gets upset with the double-backslash).

Sorry to bother everyone...
