If you wish to uninstall LW on a mac, all you need to do is Control-click on the program file & choose Move to Trash. If it won't allow you to do this, Control-click the program & choose Get Info, then look at bottom of the information window at Permissions. You may need to add yourself as Read & Write permissions. First you will need to click the lock icon to unlock it & add your password. Then press the + sign & add your account name. Then Change privileges to Read & Write via the drop down menu option. Close the window. Control-click the program again, select Move to Trash. Empty Trash.

You MUST have administrator permissions on that computer in order to change such program file permissions.

Default Mac uninstall issue

Hey i appreciate that, uh however i did try that, i called MAC and they actually went that route, i will do it again to make sure i have admin rights, i dunno why i wouldnt i have never changed that on the computer itself, i mean the computer always ask for my password when downloading someting or adding somethng, so thats why i was thinking an abnormal spy or someting, i will have to recheck make sure i am in charge of my computer, sure i am but will try again. thanks
