Hello all,

I installed the no-ip DUC for mac which allows me to automatically update the DNS that I have registered with no-ip.com no matter what my IP address changes itself to. I have a couple of questions regarding the actual application that i've installed:

I can't look into the contents of the .app package that was installed in my applications folder. What does that mean? Is it that the actual application is not that icon that was installed in the applications directory, or that it's protected somehow?

I also want to be able to uninstall the program. B/c I can't access the innards of the .app folder, I couldn't find an uninstall script. (couldn't find it in the installer package that I downloaded either) I know that simply dragging the icon residing in the applications directory into the trash isn't enough, because there are settings or libraries or daemons and stuff that need removing too. How would I do that?

One more thing: I was instructed to run a program called "FixFlags" after running the main installation .pkg. What in sam's hill is a fixflag? The icon is that of a curly script-thingy rested on a platform, if that makes any sense. If I were to uninstall the DUC, would I have to do something with this fixflags too?

I know this is a lot of questions for my first post here, but I would greatly appreciate any input with regard to any of the questions I posted here. Thanks in advance for your time.
