SCIM gone crazy, won't close

[jaygee02]

I'm not sure what started it but over the last couple of days this stupid scim spell thing keeps popping up by the clock and it won't go away. Right click and exit would just pop it back up immediately, in the end I went into the settings and unticked all the boxes and that's hidden it from the toolbar but it's still running in the background spellchecking everything. Closing the process just instantly starts up another one. I can't even uninstall it, attempting to freezes the Yast package manager.
How do I get rid of this thing? It's acting like most viruses would - constantly restart and prevent removal lol.

I'm running OpenSUSE 11, kernel 2.6.25.18-0.2

I've tried removing in zypper also but however I try to uninstall it freezes. It keeps changing my input type and messing things up. I can't find any way to prevent it starting either.. any ideas?

Have yo tried booting to a terminal and running the text version of Yast to remove it? Also check in Services to see if somthing is running as a service.

I‘ve tried running it from terminal in linux, gonna try booting into safe mode and doing it that way next. Yeah there's always a few scim services but as soon as you close them they just restart again.
