If you are using VS 2008, you can only use Silverlight 3.0.

Looks like you have downloaded Silverlight 4. Silverlight 4 works with the release version of Visual Studio 2010, not 2008...

Even though you have removed Silverlight 4, it's possible that you need to remove the underlying registry keys. Basically, if I remember right, you need to remove the following keys:

C++
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSBuild\4.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSBuild\ToolsVersion\4.0
