First of all, the Exception looks like you haven't installed X11 from  
your Mac OS X installation disk. If you just want SWF to work you can  
probably just install X11 now without reinstalling Mono and review  
the list archive for any further difficulties (you might need to open  
the app from X11's xterm).

As for the location of uninstallMono.sh, like you quoted it is  
located inside the disk image - that's the .dmg file you downloaded.  
With the disk image mounted run in a Terminal window: sudo /Volumes/ 
volumename/packagename.pkg/Contents/Resources/uninstallMono.sh (the  
tab key is your friend!)

HTH,

Andreas
