SYMPTOMS
When you install the Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit (ORK), the Motionless Office Assistant (Stillogo.acs) is unexpectedly installed to the \Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office folder. This occurs even though you installed Office to a different folder.



CAUSE
Because you do not need to have Office installed to install the ORK, the setup program for the ORK is designed to install Stillogo.acs into the \Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office folder. There is no mechanism in the ORK setup to detect an existing Office installation and install Stillogo.acs into a different Office folder.



MORE INFORMATION
Even though the ORK setup will install Stillogo.acs in a folder that may be different than the folder in which you installed Office, the Motionless Office Assistant will still be displayed in the Gallery of Office Assistants. If you installed Office into a non-default location and you move Stillogo.acs into the Office folder of this installation, the Motionless Office Assistant will not be displayed in the Gallery.
