That's a bit too succinct and general....

In your apps folder will be a folder call 'Adobe Creative Suite 2'. Within this is an' uninstallers' folder which contains the file 'How to uninstall.pdf'. This file is reproduced (as far as I can tell) at <http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=331301>

This talks you through the various folders/files to remove.

BUT BEWARE - this was written before CS3/4 existed and as my post (http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b82bde) points out, there will be some folders it suggests you remove, but that CS4 actually need (e.g. Applications/Utilities/Adobe Utilities folder).

I'm seeking a new 'How to Remove CS2 after installing CS4' document myself.

Have spoken to Adobe Tech support today and their suggestion was to "not remove any files/folders you think CS4 may need'.

How flaky is that for Technical Support - some people like to keep their hard drives lean.
