How to remove Sophos kechain from Keychain Access?

MacMan988

Hi, I uninstalled Sophos from my mac with the provided uninstaller. But it has left the sophos keychain item it seems.

When I right click on it, a menu appears but the delete option is not listed.

I went looking for the actual keychain item but I could not locate the "Sophos Anti-Virus" folder in /Library

Any ideas on how to get rid of this keychain entry in my Keychain Access?

Thanks.

    No, I followed the video exactly, deleting the keychain in the system first and then in the user.  I wonder if it is because I am using Mavericks.  I have noticed quite a lot of differences in te behavior and features between Mountain Lion and Mavericks. 

    Anyway, it might be moot point now, since I like Sophos and have learned to have it exclude my Time Machine files from the virus check.  Before, it tried to check over 3 million files because it was including the files on the "connected" Time Capsule.  Now, it is back to its more normal check of around 774,000 files just on my local solid state drive.
