This has to do with Windows XP critical update notifications, not Office.

I installed MS Office 2007 and because I did not like it, I uninstalled it
and went back to my older office version. After the uninstall I rebooted as
required.

Just now I booted up my PC and because I receive automatic update warnings I
noticed the yellow exclamation mark shield and when I opened it I saw it had
3 security updates - all of which were for "Microsoft Office System 2007" -
which is no longer installed on my PC!

I know I can tell MS update to hide these but my question what is left on my
PC that makes MS think I still have Office 2007 installed when I do not?
And - how do I get rid of it?

Thanks.

Jeff
