I'm curious why you are nervous to install software on OSX? Mac installers should generate a log of everything that has been placed/modified on your computer.

I wish I didn't have to pay for another app to uninstall other apps :/

There are free ones too?
Windows and Unix have the same issues with little pieces of apps being everywhere.
