I don't use the paperclip help - I changed my assistant to Scratchit, The
Cat.:)   I agree that it does get annoying sometimes (the mentioned
example of Dear Sir prompting it to ask me if I need help to write a
letter.  But there have been a couple of times that it's given me tips
that have been useful.

Then again, I use MS Office apps so rarely that it isn't an annoyance.
Now, if Gimp has the little fox asking me questions all the time, I'd be
upset!
