Mity, thanks for the prompt reply. As it happens, I had cleared the logs (and other things) prior to doing a backup before I saw your response. When I tried to recreate the problem to send you the log, the uninstall worked perfectly. I will note that, in trying to debug the situation, I found remnants of iantivirus in my system, which I removed prior to retrying the uninstall. Don't know if that or some other extraneous file caused the problem. Again, thanks for your help.
