 * Hi
 * Just like WordPress installation, would you advise deleting uninstall.php from/
   content-aware-sidebars ?

 * If you uninstall Content Aware Sidebars, then uninstall.php will take care of
   removing data created by the plugin, i.e. “cleaning up”.
 * You can remove the file to avoid this happening, but I advise against it.
 * From a security standpoint, removing uninstall.php would make no difference.
