We saw this problem on some Windows boxes as well. This is another
DIFX (which is used by our installer). To be able to uninstall
VBox 2.2.0 you have to edit the registry. Warning, this is quite
of hacky:

 * open regedit32
 * select HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DIFxApp\Components
 * click on 'export' and save into foo.reg
 * change HKCU to HKLM in foo.reg
 * import foo.reg
 * uninstallation of 2.2.0 should now work

Kind regards,

Frank
