Office 2007 beta

[WHTARA]

I installed the beta. Then the upgrade. Then ie7 arrived uninvited.
Outlook stpped working and in exasperation I decided to uninstall Office 2007
and revert to 2003. However, uninstalling produces "This product
installation has been corrupted. Run setup again from cd ...etc."
But when I do this it unzips the files, asks for the key, asks for the
licence agreement, reuns instal for about 2 minutes and annonces that
"Microsoft Office Professional 2007 encountered an error during setup" and
only gives me a "Close" button. So I'm stuck. Can't take it out. Can't put
it back in. Repair doesn't work. And I can't put outlook 2003 back in with
a 2007 version seemingly in place

Reason number one to never run beta software on a production machine.
