just to confirm that the invest applet is still broken and nonfunctional under 7.10. Not only it doesn't do anything (it can't be set up, no context menu, no preferences), there is also no way to uninstall it other than the workarounds discussed above. looks like this applet has been been broker for a year or two. sad gnome doesn't provide an option to monitor stocks. most of us don't care a lot about this but it's important for the average joe.

[Bug 59060] Re: Invest applet renders incorrectly
well I took a look at the code and the changelog, and found out for some questionable reasons, the behaviour was changed from displaying the numeric worth of all investments to a color-trend based on the worth change... but looking at the code itself revealed, that the calculation seem rather broken: in the code below, the lines in the iterations should rather read like var = row[updater.VARIATION] now = row[updater.VALUE] start = now - var to make more sense imho... also the color-scale sensitivity might be a candidate for the preference dialog, as it might need considerable (relative) worth-changes to cause a noticeable color change, depending on the investments done...

I've discovered that what appears to be unused grey space to the right of the applet is probably intentional. If you right click on the grey space you will see the options for removal. The grey space will change colors as your stock prices rise and fall. I feel that this is a poor design since so many misunderstand what is happening.
