In regards to #2: I am still fighting the Activation Wizard that appears upon bootup, could this be a remnant of the Office 2003 that I have uninstalled prior to installing the Office 2007? This happens even if I install Office 2007 after removing 2003 through Add/Remove Programs manually and restarting, so I dont think the script is the issue in removing office properly... and for #3: I have played around with this tool and have narrowed down the registry key to HKU\S-1-5-21-796845957-1844237615-1801674531-69345\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Internet\UseOnlineContent: 0x00000001 The only problem is that this is a users key and so logging into a machine with another user will cause this screen to pop up again. In fact both the username/initials and this Privacy Options window will appear for the users the first time they open an Office program. I have been digging around but have yet to find a way to add a key for all possible users. something like this... HKU\%SID%\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Internet\UseOnlineContent: 0x00000001 I found a similar folder at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Internet and added that key to this location (hoping it will apply to the local machine and supercede the HKU setting) but it doesnt seem to be taking the way I hoped it would. I am just taking one thing at a time, so the username and initials thing is the last thing I am caring about, and might be resolved in a similar fashion to the issue #3 Thanks for the help so far!!

Hey Everybody, first time poster, long time lurker...well at least on this subject I am working on packaging Office 2007 Enterprise and I have gotten the package to install the programs, but there are some small tweaks that I would like to make in order to keep the users from being prompted for things. I have actually done this package with option A, option B and I even tried a combination of A and B to get this to work. 1. Right now all of the Office programs on initial run after install are prompting for username and initials. It has the fields mostly populated, I just would like to suppress this if possible (this is the lowest priority of my issues) 2. Even though this is an Enterprise license and valid I get a prompt to activate Office upon first run. Clicking next a couple times, it finishes right away and says its successful. Is there a way to force this to be done? 3. Privacy options, I noticed this for Outlook but it might have been in other things as well. I get a pop up for a couple Privacy settings that Microsoft would like to do (Enable Customer Experience Improvement Program, Automatically receive small updates to improve reliability, Search online content whenever available) I would like to get this window suppressed with these options disabled. Any help on getting these options suppressed would be greatly appreciated.
