I saw mention of this on a web site. If possible, you boot the recovery
DVD to the repair prompt, then use that to uninstall the fixes. I would
guess the fix is the same as XP's.

windows-xp-users/
1. Boot from your Windows XP CD or DVD and start the recovery console
(see this link on how to use recovery console)
Once you are in the Repair Screen..
2. Type this command: CHDIR $NtUninstallKB977165$\spuninst
3. Type this command: BATCH spuninst.txt
4. Type this command: systemroot
5. When complete, type this command: exit
