As noted in another thread, installing Adobe CS5 results in unintentionally installing "growl" as well. I have no use for that, as far as I know, and it quite annoyingly keeps putting up a dialog box with the happy news that a "newer version of Growl is available online" and asking me if I want to download it. No, I don't, and I don't want to keep seeing this dialog box. Growl. How do I get rid of this stuff?

Thanks,

Thanks. That works fine. I wonder why Adobe chose to install Growl without even telling you (but then, doesn't one ALWAYS wonder why Adobe does what they do?).
