I'm having what appears to be the EXACT same problem. System Restore is
essentially locked up. I get the screen, but the curser will not function.
I tried to back my files up prior to doing anything else, and the majority of
them will not save or copy to CD. I virus scan daily, and spyware scan
daily, and it may be possible I installed System Machanic and then
uninstalled it. Have been crashing like crazy for the last week, and the
system restore lock-up happened today. Wondering if there's more to this
than just one or two of us.
I took a look at system mechanic and immediately uninstalled it.
If your system restore is really screwed up, have you tried using
system mechanic to UNDO what it did?

If this is not possible and you are unable to use SR to
revert the system, you may have to do a repair install.
