One way I dealt with the extra fonts that were installed with Office 2004 was simply to delete them. They seem to all reside in a folder inside of Applications/Microsoft Office 2004. I just tossed the whole folder, and all seems well.
While not directly related to Office, I also got a tip from MacFixit that suggested to remove all fonts from the /System/Library/Fonts/ and either move them to ones User/Library/Fonts folder, or delete the ones you don't want. This helps in determining a font problem, but allowing you to create a new User account and test that account. I wouldn't touch the System Folder fonts. Had a friend try to remove the Helvetica font from there and all hell broke loose.
