1.6.0 to 1.6.1 Upgrade Error

I wanted to also try to completely uninstall the MP, then reboot, then reinstall the MP. However, this appeared to produce the same result. The same error message was displayed at the end of the setup process. Also, the installer didn't seem to remove all traces of the previous MP installation; the program files directory was left behind, the F5 Monitoring Log event log was left behind, and other remnants may have existed that I didn't know about. Do you guys have a clean uninstaller that will get rid of all traces of the MP since your normal uninstall process doesn't seem to work correctly?

So after I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, and received the same error message, I took a look at the F5 Monitoring Service service it was set to Automatic startup with the correct Windows account but was not started. So I manually started the service and shortly after the following error events began appearing in the F5 Monitoring Log event log every 20 seconds or so:
