Failed uninstall, now can't repair or remove

I was having intermittent connectivity issues at startup. Sometimes the listener worked. Sometimes I could not connect. Even when I left as much as 5 minutes before trying.

I decided to try uninstalling then reinstalling.

The uninstall hung for over an hour. I finally killed it. Big mistake.

Now I try to run setup and it gives me the option of Repair or Remove.

But it doesn't let me Repair. Error 1605 This action is only valid for products that are currently installed.

It doesn't let me remove. Cleanup.bat not found.

Is there anyway to clean this mess up?

Thanks!
