SIMBL Agent: Why is it in the login items settings?
I don't remember to install it.
Is it safe to unmark or remove it?

Uninstall "SIMBL" or "EasySIMBL" as follows. Back up all data before making any changes.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return. A folder will open. From that folder, delete the items listed below (some may be absent.) You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Application Support/SIMBL
InputManagers/SIMBL
LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
LaunchAgents/net.infinite-labs.SIMBLEnablerForSandboxedApps.plist
ScriptingAdditions/EasySIMBL.osax
ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in. There may also be an item named "EasySIMBL" in the Applications folder. Delete it, if so.
Make sure you never reinstall any variant of SIMBL. It’s likely to come bundled with another third-party system modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.
I don't know what you have installed on your computer. Only you know that, so you need to find out. I cannot. Something you installed is responsible for installing SIMBL. If it helps: SIMBL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Don't have any app with that name in applications folder.
I stored a backup of all those files in a external drive and then, I removed SIMBL Agent from the login items and delete all those files.
After the restart, that I think was a little faster than usual, I've tryed a few applications and nothing wrong happened.
Thank you, Linc Davis, for your help.
You have installed SIMBL or a third-party utility that uses SIMBL. I would not remove anything until you know what it's for.
How can I do it?
Any suggestion?
Tks for you reply.
