I hate that thing to and recently decided to see what removing it did. It does not add or remove any files. All it does is set one registry value.
I just import this during GuiRunOnce.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Internet Gateway Device Discovery and Control Client - Remove
; this just tells optional components that it's not installed
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\Oc Manager\Subcomponents]
"beacon"=dword:00000000
; this is the key value after removal
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\Connections]
"ClassManagers"=hex(7):7b,00,42,00,34,00,43,00,38,00,44,00,46,00,35,00,39,00,\
