The standard way that people uninstall an application in Mac OS X is to simply drag an application from the applications folder into the trash.
This however can leave preference files used by the application behind. These file are generally stored in Library/Preferences folder (since Mac OS X does not have a concept of a registry).
To ensure that these files are also removed when you delete an application take a look at a neat little free application called AppTrap : http://onnati.net/apptrap/
