Run the AU manager and click on the button "Remove Entry" in the lines which show the plugins which are no longer here. I think "reset and rescan all" will work too but I have never tried that. ___ Peter Ostry

I tried that but the failed plugins still show in the audio unit manager. I want to get rid of all the failed plugins from even showing up in the plugin manager, so keep the ideas coming! thanks, Arthur

One folder is in library/audio/plugins/ components and the other is in ~users/library/audio/plugins/components. If you move the offender from the folder and put it on the desktop (or throw it away) it shouldn't appear when you get logic to rescan for plugins. The reason for the two folders is that one is for all users on that computer (in the main library) and one is just for a specific user (the user based library). check both and i'm sure you'll find what you're looking for!
