Stefano,

+1 on removing the enabled flag now that it's a tool.  I agree that it is
superfluous.

I think what Dave was suggesting is to manually change the Users
Neighborhood to include userstats and then whenever a user's profile is
visited, it will cause the userstats to be installed at that time.  We
could also maybe create a ScriptTask to "touch" each user profile to force
it to be installed if it needs to be present before a user actually visits
a profile.  I may be misunderstanding here, though.
