Unless I'm missing something, it's easy to get rid of the agent, or switch
it to something less annoying than the clippit. The cat isn't bad, unless
you don't like cats. You can change it to something less
antropormorphic/cute, like a globe, if you still want the daggone tips. I'm
using the version:MS 97 SR- PC version, on a network. You click on the
agent, and get a "What would you like to do?" prompt. Pick "options" and
"gallery", and you can change the help topics you get.
