Need to isolate Winword menu and outlook new mail inspector menu

Question

Hi,

I have developed an add-in(shared add-in) for ms-word using C#, VS2005. This add-in adds a menu to the standard menu bar of ms-word and it works fine. But my problem is that this add-in appears in ms-outlook's compose mail inspector, which I dont want. I tried to remove the menu from outlook, but when I did it, the menu in ms-word also got deleted. I understand that outlook 2003 uses ms-word as the default word editor and that's why the menus are also common. But I really don't want the menu to appear in outlook's new inspector. How do I go about it? Please suggest...
