Don't you just remove (delete) the file that was extracted out of the .zip?
This is going to sound absurd, but have you tried Appzapper? I know this is not an application, but possibly can be considered one, lol.
It looks like the only option you have is to manually edit the string to reset it back, if you know what I mean.
Check for something in StartupItems folder, should be in Library or possibly System/library
I started the modifier right from the download file I downloaded the initial .zip file into. For me, it was only a matter of deleting the first version and replacing that with the second. To remove it completely, the system's library would be your safest bet, as eddie11c has put it. =)
