Can you just wrap a small towel around it to protect the finish on the thread protector (if you're worried about that) and try to remove it with a pair of vise-grips or pliers? I would think if you put a little pressure on it to test it in either direction it would break lose and you wouldn't hurt anything. I don't envision the threads/protector being that fragile.
