Uninstall Question

kentjohnson4

I have the Sophos Home Edition for my MacBook Pro - running Mountain Lion. There wasn't an uninstall package in the home folder so I ended up deleting all the files associated with Sophos. However, the Sophos program is still running in my menu bar and keeps restarting when I quit the process in Activity Monitor.

I've tried redownloading the program but when the installer starts it says that I already have this program on my computer. I can't find any other files to remove, and the installer package won't let me install.

What other options do I have? Please help!

TIA!
