Thanks for the hard work and service to the community!

Don't understand exactly where I am supposed to unzip the Superuser files to, somewhere on the PC?. Already have Superuser on the KF and was previously rooted. Does this mean I can skip the superuser step?

UPDATE: Never did figure out for sure where to put su but it was already on my KF from a previous root so didn't need that step.

You probably still have to push su

Should unrooting work via the "unroot" selection on the KF app alone? In other words, do I need to be connected and use ADB to unroot, too, once I've rooted via your method? I ask because when I select "unroot" via the app on my KF, it says it works, but after reboot, I'm still rooted.

Seems to work, however acts a bit strange Titanium backup asks for root, when I click allow it still fails to get root, made sure I had busybox also, but no matter what I do it fails :-(
so I thought maybe root did not work, but when I ran a screenshot app that needs root, it asks for root, I hit allow and it snaps screenshots fine, so not sure this is a full root method.

would running super oneclick after this method improve things? or make them worse?

The root is full/complete however the su binary and superuser apps may not be appropriate for the Kindle Fire, I don't have one so I could not test. Replace them with the appropriate ones, those were from ICS on my Nexus S

Unroot disables the root functions preformed by the app itself, it does not remove su that you pushed to the phone yourself.
