i installed salling clicker to work with my bluetooth phone and decided i want to remove it. I am typing in a command in the terminal to remove it, but it keeps prompting me for a password. Is this the same as my user password when I install updates etc? I really want to take this off but am having no luck, I have never even used the terminal in the year or so i've had os x. Please someone help me get rid of this.

What about moving Salling Clicker.prefPane from /Library/PreferencePanes into the trash? No Terminal needed.

Why don't you just open /Library/PreferencePanes and drag clicker to the trash?

Move it to the trash, reboot, empty trash.

Maybe the daemon is still running (could be located into the prefpane) which would explain why you can't delete it.
Go into the clicker pref pane, make sure the daemon is off, command-drag the clicker icon out of the menu bar. Then try trashing the pref pane.
Alternatively, try quiting anything to do with clicker from Process Viewer, then trash.

open up the terminal, type in "Top -d" without the "". You should see a bunch of processes pop up, and listing how much processor they are using. If you see anything related to this clicker thing, look at the number to the left of it, under the PID column. Type in "Kill -9 #" Where # is the PID number listed for that process. This should have killed off any running processes for that program, and you should be able to delete it.
