You can manually delete the Saft plugin from the Safari web browser.

Saft is a shareware plug-in designed by Hao Li for the Safari web browser in the Mac OS X operating system to enable full-screen and kiosk-mode browsing in Safari. Saft also offers crash protection, bookmark organization and advertisement blocking. You can uninstall Saft by deleting all Saft files from the Mac OS X "InputManagers" library folder and the "Applications" directory.
