That kind of message might appear if you ran an installer that unpacks
itself to the temp folders, say a Web installer, and sometime afterwards the
Temp folders were cleared. You can't uninstall because the files used to
install no longer exist.

This is easy to get around; you simply re-install, and before clearing the
temp files, uninstall.
