I cannot uninstall Little Snitch with the uninstall command in the installer.
I have NOT manually removed any pieces of Little Snitch.
I read relevant forums, and following instructions, I have downloaded the LS 2.0.1 installer, run the uninstall command (three times) with a restart between each try, and no effect, LS still installed and in control.

I have tried to install/upgrade my 2.0 version using the Little Snitch 2.0.1 installer (that I was using for the uninstall command), and THEN run the uninstall, STILL unsuccessful. The version of the Little Snitch Configuration application did not change after running the 2.01 installer, the LS config app stayed at version 2.0 (136).
