I don't know exactly why you get this message. Let's have a look at the 
package definition once again:

I see some "glitches" here:

1. execute="always"
This attribute within the package definition should be set only if you 
wish that the package is re-installed on each WPGK run. I recommend to 
remove it in this case

2. remove command
You use "msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log 
/x{1CB92574-96F2-467B-B793-5CEB35C40C29}"
Probably it would be a good idea to replace /qb by /qn parameter.

<package
  id="imageresize"
  name="Image Resize"
  revision="1"
  reboot="false"
  priority="100"
  notify="false">

  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Image
          Resizer Powertoy for Windows XP" />

  <install 
cmd="\\delchnpek-fs002\wpkg-1.0.2\software\powertoys\ImageResizerPowertoySetup.exe
          /S /v/qn" />
  <remove cmd='msiexec /qn /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log 
/x{1CB92574-96F2-467B-B793-5CEB35C40C29}' />

</package>
