Altough this hack has a great potential there are some issues with it also. I've installed the shoutbox hack and it does not remove pre-installed tables properly so the install stops and it leaves an unfinished hack. Removing the tables by hand in the database is to difficult, it installs tables all over the place. When an author does not write a text install/remove instruction your database is full of useless tables or you must have a backup with all tricky consequences eventualy when you want to dump this. I hope this incident with the shoutbox is a single event and i hope all HTL hacks will have a uninstaller/install textfile also.
