    Hi all,

    After attempting to remove Parallels manually I still find the following kernel extensions present!

    97 0 0x909000 0x6000 0x5000 com.parallels.kext.Pvsnet (2.2) <5 4 3 2>
    81 0 0x905000 0x4000 0x3000 com.parallels.kext.ConnectUSB (2.5.0) <37 11 6 5 4 3>


    You can find these by giving the "kextstat" command.

    How can I remove these from my system totally?

    I have just found the files which belong to Parallels...

    /System/Library/Extensions/ConnectUSB.kext
    /System/Library/Extensions/Pvsnet.kext


    Delete these to uninstall Parallels completely in addition to any other steps.
