Our software does not install itself without your consent. We don't do that and we don't like it when other people do it. When other people do it with Growl (that is to say, when other people's software installs Growl without your consent), we don't like that—but there's nothing we can do about it. It's impossible to prevent that. As for the notifications, all Growl knows is (1) it's installed and (2) it's not the latest version. It has no way to know that you didn't install it; as far as it knows, you did, so it tells you that there's an update. It's trying to be helpful; it's not trying to spam you or advertise anything to you. You should complain to the people who wrote the software that installed Growl—probably either Adobe or Dropbox. And you're welcome to uninstall Growl, since you clearly don't want it.
