You should manual uninstall them. Manual (Un)Installation Instructions:

I will have to manually uninstall the whole thing? or just the items which are showing "test failed"?

if the answer to the second question is "YES". will i manually edit those "test failed" items before clicking on the automatically Uninstalling button?

1) Just the edits that are showing 'test' failed. All the other edits should uninstall fine.

2) You remove them, before or after you uninstall SimplePortal. Usually I would uninstall SimplePortal then remove any leftover parts.

If it fails then you can always check each file to remove any remaining bits of SimplePortal code, you can also ask for help here. :)
