And, the problem is, it seems that only the last comment is removed.
How can I remove all of the comments, please?

Note that it's not as easy as simply deleting from // to end of line, because those characters might be inside a string literal. But if you can afford the risk, this is a simple way without re:

f = open("show_btchina.user.js","r")
modf = open("modified.js","w")
for line in f:
    uline=unicode(line,"utf8")
    idx = uline.find("//")
    if idx==0:
        continue
    elif idx>0:
        uline = uline[:idx]+'\n'
    modf.write(uline.encode("utf8"))
modf.close()
f.close()
