I had a call today about Microsoft OGA (Office Genuine Advantage) Notifier becoming an annoyance for a client.

Office Genuine Advantage covers Office XP, Office 2003 and the 2007 Microsoft Office System.  This script will remove all of the different flavors as of 12-4-2009.

I hope this helps you the IT administrators out there that may have tried to save time by using a Volume License over and over to automate corporate installs that had purchased the correct BOXED version of the product.

I do not promote software pirates and suggest if it is illegal copy to true up and buy a real copy.

Create a TEXT file and past below the dotted lines into it.  Then save it and rename it to REMOVE.BAT.  Then you can execute it.
