What display are you using? It sounds like a WebKit based one that had memory usage issues that have been addressed for 1.1.3.

Coda should work out of the box. The other question would be - have you installed Logitech Control Center? (a sadly repetitive question that will finally be silenced in 1.1.3 [no ETA, don't ask]) Neither PRAM zapping nor cleaning via Onyx should have an effect as they don't touch anything Growl woul...

We don't post ETAs, please don't ask.

Applications need to support Growl. Apple does not include support for Growl in their applications, thus external programs must do the work (and in this case, we provide them and point you to them.)

Adium - did you follow their configuration instructions?
Mail - is GrowlMail installed and configured?
iTunes - is GrowlTunes running?

What version?
What applications are you expecting to show Growl notifications that aren't?
Did you install Logitech Control Center's most recent update?

Information is our friend and yours

Growl 1.1.3 currently has 2 blocking issues which I posted to the discuss list.

My curiosity was piqued so I decided to look through and find what I was missing. For the sake of those who may find this thread, the defaults I found in GrowlTunes are: - for no menu, set the following key to true (remove if you no longer desire the effect) key: GrowlTunesWithoutMenu - for recent t...

There's no way to hide the menubar icon, it's what allows control of the application and is standard for 'faceless' applications. The only option would be to download the source and modify it to no longer display.

Edit: this is inaccurate, see below

Edit their plist files to contain LSUIElement set to 1. For details on this, search the forums, it's a occasionally asked and already answered question.

Go to System Preferences -> Accounts -> (your account) -> Login Items

Add both items to this list (by drag and drop or via the + button)

We've resolved this for the next release of Growl so that despite Logitech's bad behavior Growl will continue to work appropriately.

Would this not manifest as no Growl notifications, not sporadic ones?

We seem to be misreading each other somewhere - I have not, at any time, made disparaging remarks about you or anyone else, except myself, unless you are taking personally my frustrations with the program Growl. I do take Growl personally (I'm the lead developer currently) and the remarks about it ...

Growl is literally contained in the preference pane. If that's in the Trash, the only thing left is custom styles and preferences.

Turn off Growl (click "Stop Growl" button in preference pane)
Uncheck the menu bar option as well.
Click Show All in System Preferences.
Right click (hold Control key and click) on the Growl icon.
Click "Remove Growl preference pane".

I've removed the link because it pointed to a third party site that is unknown (thus untrusted) and because it's a rar file, which is not Mac OS X standard is certainly not how it was originally distributed. As I noted in the edit comment, we are the canonical resource for Growl and older versions a...

1. "website sucks" is purely opinion. And you are entitled to that, but it really is rather moot and useless to assert such drivel without sound reasoning.

2. We intentionally stopped shipping the scripts because no one maintained them.

So, wtf indeed.

But now that I've found there is no easy way to get it off the computer, my attitude toward Growl has hardened considerably. I don't care how good a program is, I do not want to be Nortoned (for you who've never used a PC, Norton used to produce some of the best security software, but in recent yea...

There is no "Remove" to click in Growl's systems preference window; I did uncheck and disable everything I could find, but that certainly doesn't remove it from the computer. Which brings me back to my original question: How do you remove it? Or am I failing to understand some kind of Mac...
