AppZapper 1.1 allows you to confidently remove virtually any application as easily as it was installed — just drag and drop. AppZapper intelligently finds leftover support files and allows users to remove them with a single click.
The new filtering menu makes it easy to remove batches of support files by file type. In addition, the popularity of AppZapper has created a demand for translations into numerous languages, including Chinese, Italian, and Polish — which are now included with 1.1. AppZapper is a universal binary, with full compatibility on both Power PC and Intel Macs.
In its first month, AppZapper has faced global appeal and created a largely successful user base, with over 20,0000 users and hundreds of thousands of zapped apps. Clearly there is a demand to be filled by a lean, clean Mac uninstaller. AppZapper is the solution.
Mac apps appear by the hour, and we’d love to try all the ones that appeal to us. The “try before you buy” feature of most Mac software makes this possible. Since you will not keep much of the software you download and try, you should completely remove apps that you wish to remove. Uninstalling software, however, is not always a simple matter of dragging the application file to the trash. Some applications leave behind multiple support files, preferences, and caches in various folders which make them difficult to delete manually. AppZapper automates finding these files for you, making the entire experience of trying new software safer and more enjoyable.
The free trial allows you to zap five apps prior to purchase. AppZapper sells for $12.95.

So can AppZapper zap the app AppZapper?
It can but then you would find yourself in that void with all the single socks and bric-a-brac that disappears inexplicably.

Whatever.
So, off topic: anyone seen any good cartoons recently?! Apparently 900 Danish websites have been vandalised and 1600 other ‘Western’ sites too.
They didn’t strike MDN I see.
That was funny. You people are insane.
Looks more like a version of microsofts add/remove programs.
A useful app, I admit, but is this news or an advertisement?
I personaly like Yank’s approach better: http://www.matterform.com/yank/
AppZapper is an “after the install” approach – it doesn’t catch everything (Although good). With Yank you install an app THROUGH Yank. Yank makes a “script” of every action/change that occurs on your system during the install and saves it. When you want to uninstall, you run the Yank “script” and it reverses the changes – MUCH more effective. Another good thing about Yank is that you can share “uninstall scripts” with those who have already installed programs before using Yank.
DISCLOSURE: I have no affiliation with matterform/Yank and am just pointing to an alternative and what I feel is a superior product.
