I'm not familiar with that particular product, but here's a place to start.
On a machine with this installed, note the "uninstallstring" value for this product in hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall
If the uninstallstring starts w/msiexec, then the product can be uninstalled with that string, and append /qn to the end.
If the uninstallstring starts w/uninst.exe, then the product can (sometimes) be uninstalled with that string, and append -z -a
Sometimes with uninst.exe (which is Installshield) you have to "record" a response file to "play back" during silent uninstall. I don't have the article link at home, but there's an article on what switches to use.
If the uninstall string starts with something else, try that string plus -s, /s, -S, /S, -silent, or -SILENT. Sometimes you just get lucky. If none of those work, try putting the whole string into a google search, with quotes around it, and then the word silent. Maybe someone else out there has already done what you are trying to do.
Also, if you post the uninstall string here, we might be able to tell you what originally installed it (windows installer, installshield) and help you look for documentation.
