It depends how you installed the software..
If you installed from an RPM this is easy enough..
$ rpm -ev firefox

you can test if your firefox install was via rpm by doing the following:
$ rpm -aq | grep -i firefox

For more info you can:
$man rpm

hi the imp thing is that you specify how u installed like by rpm method or tar file make & make install methods
if by rpm then use rpm -e <package name> example: rpm -e audacity-1.2**.rpm

if by make
then find the ex: audacity menus in file system just delete no other way
