Uninstall script

Hi,

I am learning Apple script. I am trying to write a simple Apple script for the past 10 days. But I couldn't.
I think I will some answer for my problem in this forum.
Problem: I am writing some application using carbon/cocoa framework. It includes plugins, dylibs etc. It is packaged in such a way that during install it needs admin rights ie it will for authorization at the time of install. Similarly at the time of uninstall from finder(ctrl+click and select "Move To Trash" it is automatically asking authorization). The application is installed in /Applications and dependencies(plugins, dylib, config files etc) in /Library/MyAppName.  I want to write some apple script that will uninstall all the application+dependencies.  It must ask only once for the authorization.
I want the script to be installed as different bundle while installation. Also can you tell me whether I have to save the script as "Application" or "Script Bundle" or "Application Bundle" etc

Please help me.
