cannot remove office pro 2007 on pc with win xp sp2
Alain Bourgeois <brilspam00[ at ]skynet.be> 5/29/2007 7:00:01 PM
Dear all,

I would like to remove ms-office pro 2007 on a computer which has been
infected by viruses (these viruses were removed). OS is win xp pro sp2.

When I go to control panel, select office 2007, select "remove all"
-> I have an hourglass 3 seconds, then nothing more.
I cannot remove it (and it still uses 500 Mb).

Is there a tool to remove it completely?

Thanks for your help,
Alain

You've tried using the Office cd to either repair or uninstall?

Yes, no change.

This is sniped from another response to a Q on how to completely remove;
--------------------

Open the RTM issues page listed below. You'll find a KB there for the
complete removal of Office 2007 Beta. It works for the released version
too.
Note that the steps don't remove the non-version specific registry keys
in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office and HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office
