Author Error On Uninstall of Illustrator CS

Hi everyone. A while back I tried to install Illustrator CS on my computer, but it never actually installed properly; something happened with my computer I suppose, and it never completed the installation. Although it was not completely installed, it stil
l shows up in the program list in the "Add or Remove Programs" window, and it is still taking up space like a regular program. Now I have Illustrator CS2, and it installed properly, so I would like to remove the buggy Illustrator CS from my computer, but
every time I try (through the "Add or Remove Programs"), it gives me an error. These are the details of the error:

Error Code: -5005 : 0x8007000d
Error Information:

Kernel\KernelMedia.cpp (94) SetupDLL\SetupDLL.cpp (1597) pAPP:
PVENDOR:
PGUID:
$7.1.100.1248
@Windows XP Service Pack 2 (2600) BT_OTHER 344.0





I am running on an Alienware with Windows XP SP2, with plenty of RAM. I know this doesn't work because it never installed properly, but is there a way I can remove it (I do not think just deleting the folders will work)? Any help would be greatly apprecia
ted. Thank you.

Your easiest way would be to re-install CS to its original location and
then use the Add/Remove programs method.

Unfortunately there are only instructions for manual removal of CS2 on
the knowledgebase (and the registry keys will be different for CS)but if
it is of any help you can find it at:
