How to UNINSTALL Adobe Bridge

[kgui]

When installing Conttibute 4.0 you'll get also a lot of extra PAYLOAD software
from Adobe, which I do not want to have installed. I am speaking about copies
of Abode Bridge, Version Cue, Anchor services, Assets Services, Camera Raw,
Maps, Extended Srcipt Toolkit, Help viewer, Start Meeting .....
Why does Adobe think I need this stuff. I only want to update a website with
good old Contribute. Nothing more, nothing else. Contribute version 3 was 30MB,
Contribute CS3 is now 300MB in bytesize....

Does anybody knows hou to disable OR uninstall these components?

I tried the helpdesk, but the tricks they send to me only apply to enterprice
packages, where the system manager can create their own installers. At time of
installation, No options are given the select te packages you want.

Thanks Pieter

Indeed this is a pain: no so much for me as a developer; but definitely for
my clients who see themselves faced with heavier system requirements without
any real added (or rather 'asked for') value. Please Adobe, do something
about this and provide an uninstaller for these items. I can see the
partially commercial interest of Adobe, but this is really over the back of
my clients.

It also does not help that in newer releases of contribute the "insert document
as pdf" functionality has been replaced with an ad for Adobe Acrobat. Shame on
you Adobe. You are taking an easy and useful product and turning it into stupid.

I agree.

But what can you do once you raised the giant and its starts rulling the world?
