Hi Jim,

I know exactly what you're talking about, I had the same problem too. 
Damn stubborn little buggers, aren't they! I ended up using a small 
philips screw driver, and a pair of pliers to get more leverage. But be 
vary careful... if you manage to burr the screws, you could have quite a 
bit more trouble getting the shield out.
