Though it’s universally despised, plenty of people procrastinate when it comes to getting rid of Microsoft Word’s Office Assistant. You know the one - the bouncy paper clip (or perhaps on your computer he comes in the form of an overly-friendly dog?).

It only takes two easy steps and no more than about 8 seconds to make the Office Assistant go away - so you really have no excuses for complaining about how much you *wish* he’d just go away. All you need to do is click on the little fellow, then click on “Options.” Once you uncheck the “Use Office Assistant” check box, you’ll be able to work in peace once again.
