like andreychek said, there is no information as to what the intent is. Virus code was removed recently because it had the potential to become something that nobody wanted to be responsibl for. I don't think that most uninstallers go along deleting every file in a directory blindly, including itself. Why would you want to delete the uninstaller other then to rid the computer of the evidence as to what casued the deletion of the files. It looks a little suspecious to me. I'd like to see some reasoing behind the question, at least then some of the monks may be able to suggest a better way to do it. If it is for a ligit reason, the AM will have no problem following up and posting why they want to do this. It all comes down to the morality of posting potentially dangerous code on PM's.

Stuffy
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it, unless I'm wrong in which case I will probably change it ;~)

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
