Turning off ALL background processes -- CPU Hog

Does anyone know if there is a way to disable ALL the background features of NAV. I wish to just have the capability to run this as an application. Even when I turn off all the "automatic" features in the various preference panes NAV processes are still running and taking up CPU time. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Turning off ALL background processes -- CPU Hog - 14midi

Here's the address of an uninstaller from Symantec. It's risky as it works in Terminal but it works.
