Description: Why do I need an uninstaller in Mac OS X?Programs in Mac OS X are creating lots of files and folders during their installation (like user preferences, temporary files, log-files, ...). If you are going to delete a program from within the Finder, all these data will remain on your hard drive, and wastes precious space. So far, CleanApp has found associated files and folders by an identifier-key, and offered them for deletion. Indeed, corresponding files could not be found without this identifier-key. Up to now! Version 2.0 of CleanApp now offers a revolutionary new journaling-tool, that makes it possible to track and remove all associated files of programs, without any exceptions. This makes CleanApp the best solution to completely remove applications from your Mac OS X, or to archive it for later use.Is deleting programs using CleanApp time consuming?By no means. CleanApp's user interface is straight and easy to use. Just drag and drop the program you no longer need onto the CleanApp window, or the CleanA...
