Uninstall Help Please

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to remove programs from my computer through the Control Panel and everytime i do so, it says that an installation is currently taking place and won't let me remove it until it's finished or stopped.

However i know...i'm not installing anything...so any help would greatly be appreciated..

Thanks

    Reboot? Just because you don't think you have something installing it doesn't mean a process isn't running. If you right click the task bar and run task manager have you any setup.exe or msiexec.exe processes running?
