Q: Remove "RimAlbumArtDaemon"

I am wondering if there are anyone who knows how to remove this RimAlbumArtDaemon from a Mac?

I installed Blackberry Desktop few days ago and noticed that this RimAlbumArtDaemon is consuming a lot of resources.

 

So I used CleanMyMac to uninstall the BBD, but RimAlbumArtDaemon still remains.

 

Any ideas on how I can remove this?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.1)

    Crocodile, thanks I used the 2 terminal commands as you have mentioned.

     

    launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/com.rim.BBAlbumArtCacher.plist

    launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/com.rim.BBLaunchAgent.plist


    So does this mean i can keep the BB Desktop Software still on my MBP w/o having to see that bothersome daemon error message? Or do I still have to use the other commands that have been suggested (following text)

     

    Using superuser:

    sudo launchctl remove com.rim.BBDaemon

    Using regular user:

    launchctl remove com.rim.BBLaunchAgent

    launchctl remove com.rim.RimAlbumArtDaemon

    Hi guys, I'm not very good with all this tech stuff-- could you please explain how I 'run' those things? (baby steps please!) thanks would appreciate it so much!
