Ok, what the heck. I have used launchctl to stop, unload, and remove all the teamviewer processes and it no longer shows up in launctl list and I moved all the plist files away, but I still get error messages in system.log saying it's trying to run something every 10 seconds and is failing!

Now that that is working, the second (and more permanent) step is to move the com.teamviewer files from either /Library/LaunchAgents/ or your ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ folder. Instead of removing them outright, you should move them someplace else in case you want to try again. | |

I found two labels - com.teamviewer.desktop and com.teamviewer.teamviewer, but when I try to remove it sh-3.2# launchctl remove com.teamviewer.teamviewer it says this launchctl remove error: No such process
