Are you sure it is uninstalled and do you have it used in a startup of Desktop environment or startup of a Window Manager?

Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd wicd-gtk wicd-curses
I don't run CentOS so my above command may be off a bit. Might have to run package names individual like

Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd-gtk
Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd
Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd-curses
Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd-cli
Hope you get the idea.

You can display list all installed packages with the following command:

Code:
rpm -qa
Code:
rpm -qa | less

Short version
Code:
rpm -qa | grep -e wicd -e wicd-gtk -e wicd-ncurses
or possibly also
Code:
rpm -qa | grep wicd*
Peace.
