What's the easiest way to remove the beading. I have an old externally beaded window which is to be replaced by a new internally beaded one.

If you're replacing the window why are you bothering to remove just the beading? Are you keeping the glass, but just changing the frames?

To remove the beading get a stiffish stripping knife and shorten it till there is only a couple of inches of blade left, then sharpen the blade so that it can fit in the miniscule gap between beading and frame. A junior hacksaw and a file will do the job.
 
I am replacing a window with only a small top opening with one that has a wide half opening to latest fire escape standards. This is because the room is now required for use as a bedroom.
