- Try deleting your cache manually. Inside your Magento installation folder, go into var folder and rename the cache folder (eg. to cache1). You can delete that renamed folder if everything works afterwards.

- Still problems? Let's turn it off:
- Disable the extension by navigating to /app/etc/modules and renaming your the extension xml file, eg from .xml to .xml_off
- Clear the cache (if you can't access your backend cache page, just rename /var/cache (eg. to /var/cache1))
