Its easy, go to your Applications folder (or what ever you call it) and drag the LimeWire folder to the trash; then select Finder>Empty Trash>OK.

or

While your in the Finder, press commad-F, search you computer for 'LimeWire.' What ever comes up, drag it to the trash and empty the trash.

I don't know, this is my only good, fast, cheap sig I've ever had. My previous sigs were: Everytime a new OS comes out, my GPA goes through the floor.

Hello guys... dragging the limewire files found by searching at the finder, is it enough?... doesn't remain components in the system??

Thanks

Use appcleaner to remove every single file and or log.

In most cases, app removal software such as AppCleaner doesn't do a thorough job of deleting files/folders related to deleted apps. For more information, read this (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=12527023&postcount=6).

The most effective method for complete app removal is manual deletion:
