Clippy
Clippy is the paperclip office assistant character created by Microsoft for Microsoft Office (97 and 2003). Like all office assistant characters, Clippy can help office users in many ways (such as writing a text document in Microsoft Word and creating presentations in Microsoft Office PowerPoint).
Like other assistants, Clippy is implied by many users that he was annoying because he kept asking certain questions. For example, if the user writes "Dear" and then a name, Clippy will prompt the user and say, "It looks like you're writing a letter. Would you like help?" Therefore all office assistant characters were removed in Microsoft Office 2007.
