On specific actions (exporer, specific software) you get an installer. Either you have to cancel it a few times before the action goes through, or it seems to last forever.
The thing it is trying to install does not seem the cause, and doesn't have to be related to the software that triggers it either.
It seems to be the fact that you removed it around installscript's back, and probably some reason for the installer to be triggered to do some check - no idea.
The easiest way to solve this seems to be Microsoft's Windows Installer CleanUp Utility, see:
