  From  The  Free  On-line  Dictionary  of  Computing  (13  Mar  01)  [foldoc]: 
 
  uninstaller 
 
    A  {utility}  program  to  remove  another 
  {application  program}  from  a  computer's  disks. 
 
  Most  commonly  found  on  {IBM  PCs},  as  applications  tend  to 
  leave  files  in  various  places  on  the  {hard  disc},  so  special 
  software  is  required  to  tidy  up  after  them 
 
  Ken  Spreitzer    claims  to  have  written  the 
  original  PC  program  called  "UnInstaller",  first  licensed  to 
  {MicroHelp}  and  now  (Feb  1998)  sold  by  {CyberMedia}. 
 
  Compare  with  {installer}.
