2.5+ users - you don't really need this plugin unless you're not comfortable editing your template index file. To do it in the template and save some system resources - just add this and Joomla will do the rest: JFactory::getDocument->setGenerator(''); For newsfeeds - this plugin is still required!

On request of rasterblaster, now optionally removes the robots tag too.
If you use Joomla Caching, be sure to place ByeByeGenerator before the "System - Cache" plugin in plugin ordering. This will ensure that cached pages also have the generator removed. The same thing goes for using the Jbetolo extension.
Features:
- Modify or remove the meta generator tag
- Change it to something other than the Joomla version, or remove it entirely
- Optionally, the plugin can leave the generator tag alone
- Optionally remove the robots tag
