Description:
Uninstalling MySQL network does not remove entries from the firewall exceptions listing.

I've documented this in the uninstall chapter but perhaps removal should be part of uninstalling.

How to repeat:
Check firewall exceptions listing after uninstalling.

Suggested fix:
Automatically remove from exceptions listing?

tested with 1.1.0.4973:
- after unInstall the entry for the Apache is still in the firewall exceptions list

Bug council has agreed that we will leave this as is:

[10:55] <andy> Leith: and i think you're fine with not fixing the firewall one, correct?
[10:55] * Leith reads is
[10:55] <Leith> yes, I would say "not a bug"
[10:58] <billw> andy: i agree with Leith - either way - in other words, i wouldn't have written either of these up :)
