You should go back to the directory where you installed it from (where you did ./configure, make and make install) and do "make uninstall".

Well, if "make uninstall" does not work, then you will have to take a look at the docs in the source directory and see if there are any instructions for deinstallation. If not, you may have to track down all the files manually and remove them (which can be very tedious).
