you might be able to bring it back with a restore (xp), or with time machine (osx)...
google "Windows XP System Restore Guide" -- there's a nice guide from "bleepingcomputer".

Okay, maybe silly question .... but have you tried opening excel, going to the file menu, and looking in your windows temp directory for any excel related temps?
