Only that that same persistant Open Book icon stayed in my add/remove
programs list when I tried to uninstall it once, and of course it would not
reinstall at that point. This was not after that error message though. I
don't even remember what the problem I was having with Open Book was; only
that I needed to uninstall it for some reason. I called tech support, and
they walked me through manually deleting whichever file it was that
remained, and then I could get Open Book to install again. That's what I
would recommend. Puzzling... good luck.Catherine Armstrong
