I've installed CFB2 (v 2.0.1) several times before, both standalone and as an eclipse plugin (Mac OS 10.8). Was installing on a new MacBookPro (as a plugin to 64-bit eclipse 3.7), but accidetally specified a install folder I didn't want to use. I decided to re-install, but had deleted the install dir first, therefore I deleted the uninstaller. I have tried to remove every folder and file I can think of (even under the /System and /Library folders), rebooted, re-downloaded the installer to ma but I still get the following error message:

Uninstall ColdFusion Builder Plugins: Uninstall ColdFusion Builder Plugins before installing Adobe ColdFusion Builder 2 Update 1. ...

What is the installer looking for to determine whether the plugin files are still "installed". I'm stumped. Thanks for your help.
