Default Groove will not uninstall

Laptop with Vista x32 enterprize edition.

Reason for wanting to uninstall:
Every time windows shuts down it gives a a Groove error saying something to
the effect that a file is open - even when no file was ever open in that
session. It gives the error every time. It gave the error even after an
uninstall and reinstall.
Now (after making a new account on other machines I want to try it again.

The attempt to uninstall:
Exited Groove. There is no icon in the tray. Two obvious groove process in
Task Manger were manually closed.

An attempt in "Uninstall or change program" resulted in a message to the
effect that something was wrong and it needed to be repaired.
I ran setup from the CD hoping that would open to an option to reair. It
didn't, instead it completed as if it were doing a first time install.
The current attempts at a uninstall in "Uninstall or change program" results
in what appears to be the install/uninstall screen for a split second, then
comes this error message: "Setup could not find any available products to
install. Please contact your administator"

What next?
