The Moon in Deep Winter

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

I want the new updates but I have no clue what this UFH 0.2 is.  I would love to uninstall it or is it an uninstall itself?  At any rate it does not show up in the "root" of my kindle and I can't seem to find out how to get rid of it.  would anyone be so kind as to help me??  TIA.

It is a font hack. When you install it, it does not create a file, it alters the Kindle system file. Someone will post a solution shortly.

I put this    update_ufh_uninstall-k2.bin (old) into the root of my Kindle.  Then I tried to follow the directions after that by going into the settings menu but it did not give me an option to update my Kindle.  I did sync and check for items but that keeps wanting me to connect to wireless and then I push "yes" and then it syncs and checks and the stupid hack is still there.  Any guesses as to what I'm doing wrong?

Are you sure you have an original K2 or the more recent K2i (global wireless, which is all they've sold even for US customers for maybe 9 months or more)? This zip file has all 3 uninstall files (K2, K2i, and DX) for that hack version: http://charles-reace.com/Kindle_Hacks/font_uninstall_2.3.zip

I'm positive it's the original K2.   I will try another uninstall bin from the link you posted.  Will it remove the "old" version of the install?

Check the S/N of your unit, because a greyed out "Update Your Kindle" link means you've got the wrong binfile for your device ID.

What is the S/N and where would I find this.  Thanks for all of these suggestions btw.  I feel a lot less hopeless at this point.
