On the left panel click the "advanced" (or maybe its "expert") box, and you will see extra options. From there you should see the OEM info is enabled, with other maybe unwanted options, just deselect to disable it/them. The settings are stored local to the app, so the settings are persistent.

I use this as part of the New Setup/Annual Maintenance works - and I recommend it, with Provisos (!)

1. Once the pack is download, open the "Programs" folder and remove the entire contents, no more Russian Firefox, toolbars etc..

2. Always select Expert Mode on the Left Hand side and UNSELECT the two base checkboxes, one adds OEM.bmp info to the Computer Properties page and the other installs a continually running driver update program (removable also via appwiz.cpl), the program will throw back a "program install failure" error. That's actually exactly what we want :P


Apart from the caveats above it's fantastic, especially as it is an OFFLINE facility.
