How to kill Clippy
This is for all the unfortunate stuck with Microsoft office.Most of you probably dont have it anyway, but its fun to know how to kill it anyway.
I don't have to tell you how annoying that stupid little animated paperclip character is that pops up in Microsoft Office 2000 and Office XP, preventing mouse clicks until it's closed. Clippy (and all the other stupid little characters) are very easy to kill:
* Double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon in Control Panel.
* Locate Microsoft Office 2000 or Microsoft Office XP in the list of installed programs, and double-click it (in Windows Me/2000/XP, highlight it and click Change).
* When the setup window appears, click Add or Remove Features.
* For Office 2000, click the plus sign [+] next to Office Tools, and click the box next to Office Assistant; for Office XP, it's in the Office Shared Features category.
* From the menu that appers, choose Not Available.
* Click Update Now when you're done. That's it! None of those annoying characters will ever bother you again!

Re: How to kill Clippy
That reminds me of this joke:
There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.When asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"He now works for Microsoft, writing error messages.
