#11168: TorBirdy still running when disabled / no uninstall/remove button in GUI

-------------------------+-------------------------
 I'm using debian wheezy/icedove and enigmail as only other add-on. My
 gmail got locked down and they forced a password change. I disabled
 TorBirdy for entering the new password, but although shown as disabled, I
 still get the "The proxy server is refusing connections" message in the
 add-ons manager and the connection to the mail server gets refused, unless
 I'm running tor as well. I tried icedove in safe-mode, with all add-ons
 disabled with the same result. There is also no uninstall/remove button on
 TorBirdy in the add-ons manager. I had TorBirdy previously disabled and
 re-enabled without any problems, so the issue occurred suddenly. Of course
 I can manually remove TorBirdy, but I left it as is for now, so if you
 someone tells me how to provide further information on how to re-create
 I'll be happy to. I'm not too savvy so it might be improper usage, but my
 debian install is fresh and I did not configure much.
