Any of the Apps mentioned in the previous posts will do fine.

The thing to keep in mind is that those few extra files left behind by an App will not interfere or impact your machine in way. They only take up a minimal amount of disc space so that is not even an issue.

sandaddiction,

If you just go to the root of the program (in your Appliance directory) and delete it, it should delete all the other pieces of that program. Read that in a Mac OS X book...
