Does anyone know how to completely uninstall "video download helper"

Using "remove" through Firefox disables rather than uninstall and
leaves an "undo" option.

I wish to completely remove the app to be able to install fresh.

In about:addons click on the ... at the end of the line for that extension
and select remove. Close and restart firefox. Once firefox has been restarted
the undo option is gone.
