I use GnuCash for personal finances

Question:

I hold 7 publicly traded commodities with ticker symbols on US stock 
exchanges. I installed the Get Quotes capability using the installed 
tool "Install Online Price Retrieval for GnuCash".  As the documentation 
says, it took about an hour to intall and it was about right.  It added 
over 600 Mb of stuff to my C: drive.

Now that I've tried it a few times, I find it isn't worth the hassle. I 
want to uninstall it.

Is there an equally convenient - and thorough - uninstall tool/app to 
remove what "Install Online Price Retrieval for GnuCash" added? I don't 
want to keep strawberry perl, either. I certainly do want to continue 
using GnuCash.
