Chris- I don't think just moving the text around on the page is really going to help. I suggest, since you already have big red text on the page, putting a big red "uninstall growl by clicking here" thing at the top of this page http://growl.info/thirdpartyinstallations.php AND making the uninstall script one of the download options on your home page.
I completely understand that I was in a fraction of a fraction of percent of people who had (1) received growl in an unauthorized fashion and (2) already deleted the program and therefore could not follow your uninstall instructions. Still, if I did it this way, others have done it too. Your page, as it existed before AND how it exists now is not helpful to people like me who thought "what is this stupid growl pop-up thing?" and did a search for growl on their computer and deleted everything they could find. You see what I mean? I also didn't see the suggested uninstallation script unbundled from the downloads page. You have to understand - for a person like me who didn't ask for growl to be on my computer AND didn't/doesn't use any of the confirmed 3rd party installers to be asked to actually INSTALL growl just so I can UNINSTALL it raises many red flags. At the same time, getting several pop-up flags a day can only be ignored for so long before it becomes paramount to stop them (I lasted about 6 days before I hit the wall today). SO, if you want walk the walk of "We're as upset about that as you are" you really need to make it a one click to make this program go away from my computer. Yes, if I had not deleted the program (and yes, I understand now that deleting and uninstalling are different things) I would have been able to follow your uninstall instructions, but like I said, if I did it, others are doing it too. Now, Chris, have you looked at wikipedia for the definition of "twat"? Since I learned today what a "disk image" is, more than I ever wanted to learn about the inner workings of Growl, AND was hit over the head with the "deleting and uninstalling are not equal" idea, can you please learn that using the term "twat" is offensive, disrespectful, and wholly inappropriate? -k -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
