Help Help!!! !!! !!!

I have Helix Launcher installed on my Droid 2.1, and have had it for about a month now. And all of a sudden today, I am getting CONSTANT force closes, to the point where I can't even get to the settings, or market to uninstall it.

Is there another way to remove it from my phone???
 
Probably able through terminal or adb. Find the file and rm*filename*. Someone else well have to get you the code.. Sorry
 
There is a way to start the Droid in safe mode. Power it off, slide out the keyboard, then hold the menu key on the keyboard while powering it up. Keep holding the menu key until the M logo disappears. When it finishes powering up, you will see the indicator for safe mode and be able to do what you need from there.

I did remove a program using adb. You have to open adb using (your phone will have to be rooted):
Code:
adb shell
Then search for the program name.
Code:
ls /system/app/
Once you find the name of the program, you can do a
Code:
rm /system/app/<program_name>
disclaimer: I've only done this once, but for me it worked perfect when I did it. I'm also not sure if a Launcher leaves other files somewhere or other settings.
