"First-Run" setup of Office for a new Profile

Does anybody know if there is a way to turn off the "first
run" setup that office does when a new users logs into a
PC? We are trying to migrate user profiles with a third
party application to a new domain. But when the user logs
in for the first time, the "First-Run" setup runs and
overrides all of the profile's settings already in place.
Any ideas would be great!

hi
you should overwrite the "default user" profile with a
profile you have created and set up for the users who will
log on. they are located by default in c:\documents and
settings\; just copy the folders of the e.g. "newuser"
into the folder default user.
try it on test machine, because i'm not sure anymore if
you have to copy all the files/folders or just the
ntuser.dat, because it's a long time ago i've done this on
w2k...but it worked, every new user who logged on the
machine took this default profile settings which i did
overwrite with the definded user profile.
