Here is a great Easter Egg that makes the MS Office paperclip help agent take on the look that Micro$oft never intended, but that 99% of users would prefer:

1.  You must have MS Office installed
2.  Open any of the MS core application E.g Word, Excel, etc.
3.  If you can't see the Help agent (he looks like an annoying paperclip), click the ? Help icon in the top right of the screen.
4   Once you can see the help agent, find the biggest hammer you have and smash your monitor right where he is.
5.  Keep smashing until you can't make out the help agent anymore.
6.  If for some strange reason this damages your monitor I cannot be held accountable.  This is an untested hack and may not work on all systems, but it worked for me.  I can no longer see the help agent, or the time for that matter, but all's well that ends well...

Streetdaddy.
