PC crashed during "apt-get install"

[Alan McKay]

Hey folks,

I was doing "apt-get install ntop" and something unrelated to this
activity caused my PC to hang.

Now I can not install it nor remove it  - it is stuck in between

I should mention that I've only been using Ubuntu for about a day now.
 I've got tonnes of experience with the Fedora / Redhat distros and
decided it was time I learn something about Debian/Ubuntu.  Looks like
I'll accomplish that :-)

I've been googling for about a half hour now but cannot find any way
to correct this :
