HP Support Assistant 8.7.50.3 removal or dwonload

[SBenson]

We are trying to remove HP Support Assistant 8.7.50.3 quietly without any user intervention.  Unfortunately every time it uninstalls it asks the end user  "do you want to keep your settings..." then pops up a website asking why it was uninstalled.  This is unacceptable as we will be removing this from about 300 machines. 

The Registry says the uninstallString is as listed below but that location doesn't exist for some reason.  I would need the installer for 8.7.50.3 but I am unsure what the SP#####.exe installer name.  

"C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield Installation Information\{1E14ACF0-1480-4467-A73D-67C4FD35A5F4}\setup.exe" -runfromtemp -l0x0409 -removeonly

I have also tried uninstalling with msiexec /qn and it still prompts the user

msiexec /x {1E14ACF0-1480-4467-A73D-67C4FD35A5F4} /qn

I also have tried getting the newest version (sp98862) extracted the contents, ran the UninstallHPSA.exe which also prompts for user interaction.
