    Default Used Contribute Once, now I cannot get rid of

    I used Contribute when it first came out in conjunction with a website that had
    been built with Dreamweaver. I decided not to continue with Contribute, but
    for two year now I have been trying to get rid of the annoying messages that
    the site is configured be shared using Contribute and that a certain user (my
    username) has currently checked out the page I am trying to alter. Everything
    works, it just thinks I am still using contribute. I have long removed it from
    my hard drive and as many files as I know to remove from the site. I would be
    very grateful if someone can explain a procedure to rid all references to
    Contribute from my site and from Dreamweaver MX. TIA Henry
