You could close Outlook, delete the OAB from your local workstation and open Outlook again, forcing it to grab a fresh copy. This will let you see the changes are indeed done, but other users won't see it until the GAL update, as D stated below.

Odds are that you're running Outlook in cached mode, which means the GAL it's showing you is a copy of the OAB. Since the OAB is refreshed on a schedule rather than immediately and it has to be downloaded to your PC after the update, it can take a while for your copy to reflect the GAL. Outlook Web Access will show it being hidden immediately.

I tried it on one user (and myself) and in both instances the user still appeared in the GAL.
