Excel "Unreadable Content" Error

I am wondering if anyone else has seen this issue.


If the file shellstreams.dll (for Photo Streams, it appears) is present on a Windows PC, Excel will occassionally crash when opening up an .xlsx file. Simply renaming that dll resolves the issue. The following blog talks about it.

Is anyone else also seeing this issue?
