I have deactivated xmarks, but it keeps popping up a request to sign in

I have deactivated the Xmarks plugin. I checked my plugins page and it says that it is not active, but this dialog box asking me to sign in keeps popping up and interrupting whatever I'm doing. It's really annoying, and it tells me the plugin really isn't inactive. I tried reinstalling Firefox but that didn't help - I do sync it but the xmarks login box popped up before I logged in. Can we make it as if I never had the plugin at all?

I had previously deleted everything in the plugins folder in my library (mac) but apparently missed one file which I found through search. That does seem to have done the trick.

You must disable or remove the X-marks program.

As I said in my OP, I did that already.
