I tried WICF but no sign of any Office bits in it list .

A quick scan through the registry found hundreds of references to Office.

Process Monitor Did spot that msiexec was trying to run an installer in HKLM so dug deeper and found a whole group of MSOffice things... so after backing up the reg I deleted the lot.

The nags are now gone!

There is a slight flash of something trying to get to the screen, so there must be more remnants in there somewhere... will dig again.
