Summary: Uninstall fails if IIS ext can't locate website

Initial Comment:
"Failed to read IISWebsite" (or similar) occurred during uninstall, preventing 
the uninstallation from proceeding.

This originally occurred when the website configuration was being driven from 
properties (ie. not hardcoded into the elements themselves) _and_ the 
properties where not saved/loaded from the registry.

However... this illustrates that the IIS Extension's remove actions, and 
probably rollback actions, will raise fatal errors. Any remove or rollback 
action should not raise fatal errors (users are left with an application that 
cannot be removed... rather than a removed application that left a few bits 
behind).

This could also happen even when properties are saved/loaded from the registry 
if a system administrator reconfigured IIS. For example... changed the port 
#... and then poof... uninstall cannot proceed.
