Hi,

It's really not that bad -- sure, Remote Assistance, Whiteboard and Application Sharing won't
work (as well as some applications which require Messenger might freeze up or otherwise not
load), but some people don't use this functionality and there are some legitimate reasons why
a person would want to remove it.

Plus, they can always reinstall it if they require one of the above functions, obviously
removing as a solution is a last resort in most cases however.
