Go to your Fonts folder, select the ones you don't want, and either
right-click or click the File menu, and choose Delete.
(They'll be gone forever. If you might want them someday, Move them
somewere else.)

As grammatim suggests, moving is safer than deleting, but see also
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/DeleteFontsSafely.htm. Note that the
article is pre-Office 2007. There are new default fonts in Word 2007
(notably Calibri and Cambria) that you will want to be sure to keep; all the
new Office 2007 fonts begin with C.

I admit that I am simply curious about this message. Would you please let us
know the exact wording. As an experiment, I once had more than 2000 (yes,
two thousand) fonts installed without any kind of problem or message.
Thanks.
