[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1258857, member: 38864"] Nope, it won't. Those app uninstallers are largely useless. They root out some trivial support files… mostly preferences that, if left alone, take up a trivial amount of space and have zero impact on your system performance. Here's one site with some instructions on what to root out: [url=http://www.fixkb.com/2011/03/remove-mackeeper.html]Uninstall MacKeeper - [Fix-KB][/url] EDIT: BTW… formatting and reinstalling OS X just to get rid of the traces of MacKeeper is overkill. Once you root out the right files, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. [/QUOTE]
