Thanks for the advice... I'll tend to cleaning, etc., a little later. In the meanwhile, I just got some "big gap filler" Great Stuff and I'm going to fill up a couple holes left in the closet. Just in case.
I switched off the compressor and let the fan run. Here it is, an hour later, and it's completely melted, and I dumped the water tray I put outside the closet.
There appears to be good air flow. I could also park a fan right in front of the unit,, that would help force air through it.
I'm thinking that by having the compressor run for 90 straight minutes that could have helped it freeze over. WORST case scenario, I have two more units kicking around here... I used the oldest one for this project so I have no problem junking it if it's too old.
