I downloaded Geektool 3 and didn't like the setup compared to geektool 2.1.2. i deleted the downloaded file instead of uninstalling it and i was left with a .prefpane file that wont delete. It says that i have items that are in use that are associated with geektool. Any tips on how to end the programs so i can get geektool off my computer.

Force quit through disk utility ....
Then you might need AppCleaner to trash all files.
This app once you have dragged a app into it trashes all associated files and folders for that app
Hope it helps and welcome to the forums :)

Sorry my mistake ...
Use Activity Monitor

Applications>Utilities>Activity Monitor
Once you have it open look for the Geektool you need to quit then in the top left corner there is a Quit Process button. Click that then a drop down window will appear.
Gives you options but click on Force quit ... Image to follow to help you out ..
