 * Hi Guys!
    I didn’t install your plug-in and it is not included in the list of
   istalled plugins in my dashboard. What makes me really very frustrated is that
   yesterday I published a few pages and posts. Behind my writing something was 
   going on with my wordpress, as a result of which I see your plugin installed.
   But again it is not in the list of my installed plugins. And all the pages and
   posts that I published yesterday are vanished.
 * I spent the whole day on writing, so right now I will have to do the same job
   as yesterday.
 * I do not need your plugin, I will really appreciate that if you could provide
   me with instructions how to delete that.
 * I am sorry, but it looks very much like a spammy action plugin. I do not want
   it.

 * Are you hosted with MediaTemple by any chance? They’ve entered into a partnership,
   and been installing this without permission on all of my live sites.
 * You should see it on a list of your plugins however, under “Sidekick”.
 * This is of course a shockingly bad business practice – not to mention the security
   violation given every install is reporting back to base for tracking purposes–
   and I’d encourage you to vote 1 star for this disgusting company.

 * I am using godaddy managed wordpress, but it seems to me they are in partnership
   with MediaTemple, aren’t they?
 * that’s very strange, but i do not see the plugin on the list 🙁

 * Hi Asles,
 * Go Daddy recently bought Media Temple, so they are now the same company, two 
   different divisions.
 * With regards to your lost pages, can you give me any more detail on what was 
   going on? SIDEKICK only runs when you click the Orange Help Me button and then
   select a Walkthrough. Otherwise, it’s dormant. It also doesn’t access anything
   related to your database once installed. When you run a Walkthrough, it pulls
   from our platform.
 * You can contact me directly at [ben@sidekick.pro](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-remove-your-plugin/ben@sidekick.pro?output_format=md)
   with further details and I’ll see if we can help you out.
