how to uninstall nessus 1.07

Hello,

I am a newbie OpenBSD and Nessus user.

Recently I installed Nessus 1.07 using the command "lynx -source
http://install.nessus.org | sh" but then I realised that version 1.09 was
out...

How can I uninstall the old version 1.07? Is there a uninstall command?
Silly me told the script at install.nessus.org to install nessus in the
default prefix /usr/local hehe.. I didnt realise I should have told it to
install to somewhere like /usr/local/nessus, now nessus is installed in
/usr/local.. lol

I want to 100% completely eradicate all traces of Nessus from my system,
everything, even configuration files, so that I can then install the latest
version, is it a good idea for me to install the latest version from the
OpenBSD ports tree?

Thanks,
Alf --Anxious to fix his OpenBSD system

The 1.1.x tree has a clean uninstaller that will work with 1.0.x as
well. I attached it to this message.
