How to Remove StatCounter?

[zacsmith]

I installed StatCounter on one of my Wordpress installs (latest version of WP), but decided to remove it, as it wasn't playing nice with some of other plugins I must use.

Deactivated and deleted files through Plugin Admin, the removed the snippet of tracking code.

However, "Site Tracker" still appears in the Dashboard left-side menu, and in the Settings section.

How can I get rid of these two menu items so that StatCounter is removed from my site entirely?

Thanks.

Hi Gary,

Site tracker isn't an entry we generate. By the way, if the plugin isn't working well for you if you wanted you could drop the actual tracking code into a sidebar txt widget, or into the footer.php file.

Thanks, Rory, for your reply.

I see that I made a mistake. The entry in the left-hand admin column under "Dashboard" actually reads "StatCounter Stats". When I click on that item, it open the StatCounter website (with a 404 error). I guess it's trying to access the site stats but can't find them.

Is this generated by StatCounter?

If so, same applies as my original post; ca'n't seem to find how to remove it from WP Admin.

Unfortunately, the widget idea, although good, won't work for me, as I don't want the stats to be public. Too bad: I like the stats that are generated, especially referrers, as I am trying to track inbound links from PDF files.

Any ideas?

Thank you very much Rory for the reply.. My friend wants to re install the stat counter so he was searching for the best method.
