Hello and welcome to the forums, captivate1234.

If you've successfully rooted your device, it's time to get a file management app which makes it convenient to go to the right area for removing bloatware.

I've used Root Explorer from Market on more than one rooted device, and have found it to be quite a simple process (with an eye toward being careful, check the All Things Root sub-forum for threads about what NOT to remove).

In Root Explorer, most apps are listed in the /system/app folder. But, again, I can't emphasize enough, be sure to not go crazy in there.. most things with "google" in their name, for example, I leave alone. There are lists posted here and there of what is safe to remove.

Have fun.
