Add In not visible on some machines

We are using Add-In-Express 4.0.1902.0, and we have built a Word Add-in.
We install it on Win XP / Office 2007.
On most of the machines, this works fine, but some machines show the following symptoms:

1. Our "Custom button" is not visible in the ribbon.
2. In the COM Add-In Dialog box, the Add-In is listed, but its status is "not loaded". I can set the checkmark, but its status remains "not loaded", whatever I do.

Kind Regards
Matthias

I have scraped the following log file from one of the machines which fail to display the button:

Hi Matthias.

The log above is created while the add-in is installed.
Please send me the log with the add-in startup information.

Hi Matthias.

This is the same log. It is rewrited whenever the add-in is loaded/registered/unregistered.
