Only UCI style extensions can be uninstalled.
The others are made for liveCD, or frugal. so a reboot clears them.

Did you do a HD install ?
If so, I know of a crude way to uninstall it.

sorry, i forgot all about this thread.

first move the .dsl away from your mydsl directory so it doesn't load again.
then reboot.
open emelFM and click on the 'H' to unhide all files.
look for any directory that looks like it was put there by the app,
e.g ".yahoo" or whatever. verfiy by viewing the files in the dir.
delete the dir.
that's it.

p.s/LeeT91: (alternative method was emailed to you).
