Check to see if there's such a folder as either


/Library/Application Support/Trend Micro

~/Library/Application Support/Trend Micro


and if so, see if either contains an uninstaller.


Failing that, download the demo version of the app from Trend Micro, and try the uninstaller that it should contain.


If all else fails, the manual way would be to use something like EasyFind and search for anything with "com.trendmicro" in the filename (you can use Finder, but be sure to include system files and invisible files in the search options). Pay particular attention to the folders


/Library/LaunchAgents

/Library/LaunchDaemons


~/Library/LaunchAgents

~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins

~/Library/Preferences
