In most cases just drag the software folder and drop on the trash can. Depending on the Mac OS you are running.

Yeah, click drag to trash should do it.

Though! preferences are still in the preferences folder in the system folder, you can find the specific ones pertaining to that app, and delete it. Right? (been a classic while since ive been in classic)
