Do you have administration access?

It just looks like a permissions problem and your current account does not have permission to delete anything from the registry. As I have not run into that error myself, I cannot say with certainty exactly what it is.

Yeah it looks like you don't have permission to delete registry files.

Try starting Windows in Safe Mode, Then when it goes to log in, there should be another "Administrator" account. Log into that (which may or may not have a password depending on if you gave it one during Windows setup). After logged in to the Admin account, try uninstalling it again.

Try running regedt32, navigate to that key, right click and select permissions, modify as necessary and try the un-install again. This should work....
