How to completely remove Live from my computer?

Like the title says, I'd like to know how to completely remove all traces of Live 8 from my iMac running Snow Leopard because I'm selling the software. I did a search and all I could find were threads on removing past versions, so I wanted to make extra sure Live 8 didn't place components in any additional hidden folders that weren't mentioned in those threads.
Thanks

You don't need to remove the software if you're selling it, you do if you're trying to crack it though

Remove the hard drive and have it securely destroyed. Only way to be sure.

At first I was going to hassle you for trying to circumvent a time bomb cracked version, but then you posted that and redeemed yourself.
