Problems uninstalling icc

I was looking at how to uninstall the icc directory because I want to do a fresh install of icc.  Now when I looked at the notes in intel they said something about removing the intel directory where icc,etc is stored.  I did that and when I try to do reinstall icc I get the following error message:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initializing, please wait...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Intel(R) C++ Compiler Professional Edition for Linux* 11.0 is already
installed.

If you want to reinstall the Intel(R) C++ Compiler Professional Edition for
Linux* 11.0
please uninstall current version and run install script again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press "Enter" key to quit:


What is going on with this?  How do I resolve this issue?  What should i do to completely uninstall icc so I can reinstall it again.  I am trying to install this for a 64 bit machine because I was getting error messages saying that my libstdc++.so.5 was not in the right ELF class.  I said something about that this was a 32 ELF class when I have a 64 bit machine.  Any ideas on how to resolve these issues and also make a fresh install?
