Launchpad remove parallels icon

i'had installed parallels but now no more. I've upgraded to Lion and inside Launchpad i find old icon located in /users/username/Applications/Windows 7 Applications, folder created by Parallels.

How can i remove this app from Launchpad?

Thanks

I'd hazard a guess that the folder 'Windows 7 Applications' is located inside the 'Applications' folder on your system (that is, if you open your home folder and look in 'Applications', that Win 7 folder might be contained in there).


If that's the case, remove the folder from your 'Applications' folder and it might remove itself from Launchpad.


My understanding is that programs located in your 'Applications' folder are the ones that get loaded into the Launchpad screens.
