Angry Screen Saver/Delete problem
I downloaded a screen saver and it will not let me delete it. It keeps coming back to sorry to see you go. And that screen stays on. When I go to control panel, and click uninstall it says could not open INSTALL.LOG file and keeps repeating that over & over. I have tried msconfig at the start up button, task manager, etc. and can not fix the problem.

If that don't work you might try using Hyjack this, I had one I couldn't get rid of and it cleared it right up. Sorry don't have the link.
