How to uninstall Pithelmet?

Actually, I don't the the PH installer does have a built-in uninstaller.

Which files did you trash? According to the PithHelmet web site, you should be able to uninstall it by removing "/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/PithHelmet.bundle". I just tried it myself, and it worked.

There are, however, other files that it installs that you might want to remove as well. See the above link for what I think is a full list.

If you don't mind my asking, why do you need to uninstall PithHelmet? If it's because of 10.3.9 incompatibilities, I think the new version 2.4 should fix the problem.

Edit: you might also want to check that directory in both your root-level and user-level Libraries. Maybe it somehow got placed in both.
 
Thanks for the informative posts :)

I want to install 10.3.9, and I don't want to take any risks, lol, so I think it's safe to remove Pithelmet.
 
Removing (trashing) the PithHelment.bundle from
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins folder
will effectively remove PithHelmet from Safari.
 
Um. i don't think so. I'm pretty sure DesInstaller uses the /Library/Receipts folder, and reads the .pkg files from there.
