See, I told you not to look. Open a Terminal $ gksudo iptables -D OUTPUT -j SelfControl $ gksudo iptables -F SelfControl $ gksudo iptables -X SelfControl These will be done along with other file removals when you un-install the package with synaptic/aptitude/dpkg etc. But if you don't remove the rc script before rebooting it might re-enable the iptables chains and current blocks. $ gksudo update-rc.d -f selfcontrol remove $ gksudo rm -rf /etc/init.d/selfcontrol /etc/selfcontrol $ gksudo dpkg --purge selfcontrol # libselfcontrol-perl for old installs. The 'at' jobs will just run anyway and fail.
