FrontPage tags - Pain in da HTML


I have a webapplication, developed and ready to be deployed. The web part of it was designed using M$ FrontPage. None of the developers cared about proprietary weird tags that FrontPage inserts into HTML. I don't remember tags on top of my head, but I remember seeing tags such as <webbot> and etc. Now, my client doesn't want to see a bunch of useless tags obscuring HTML when a view source is done. This is not good from a application maintenance perspective too.

I tried googling for tools that would remove these tags from html without unknown side effects and I haven't really found anything useful. Has anyone dealt with this kind of problem before? If you did, did you use any tool for this? or Did you write your own regex based replace utility or something?

Please share your thoughts on this.
