Does anyone know how to TOTALLY remove the Apple Remote Desktop from your system? I installed it to play around and now want to remove it. However, it still shows up in my System Prefs even though I cannot find anymore "remote dekstop" items when searching in Sherlock. Are there hidden items someplace possibly? Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
 
That preference pane you see is actually called "ARDPref.prefPane". You can remove it buy typing this in your terminal window:

sudo rm /system/library/preferencepanes/ARDPref.prefPane

then enter your admin password when prompted.

More that likley there are other files you missed if you are trying to delete remote desktop by hand, most notably the deamon that starts up during startup.
