All you have to do is move it to the trash. The only thing you might want to do is turn off the thing that adds it to the status menus. I can't remember off hand what it's called. The only time you might need an uninstaller for an app is if it installed by means of an installer package. This will be a pkg file. Usually, such a file will either have an uninstall pkg, or there will be instructions from the distributer on how to properly uninstall it. If you don't see either, than I don't recommend installing it.
