As of October's updates (to Offfice 2K3), office shink no longer works.
It had been skiping a handfull of files that I kept track of and added manually in past months. However, one of the recent .msp patches has really thrown the office shrink autoit script off, too bad.
And, with no update in 2 yrs....
I guess the creator is long gone.
If any one feels like assisting, I'm about to decompile shrink_lang02.exe. My autoit skills at this point are weak but may be improoving shortly. I may rewritre as a batch as I don't care about cosmetics, well see what the decompiler spits out.

In recent months updates have increased and it's difficult to track down which one(s) are causing this process to fail. I doubt anyone knows right now (only yesterday was patch Tues.).
Here's a tested, complete list of required patches should it proove to be usefull....
