This is the closest I've come:

tell application "Finder"
set theName to name of control panels folder
set theRef to (a reference to (folders of system folder ==>
where name starts with theName))
set theLauncher to a reference to (files of entire contents of theRef
==>
where file type = "cdev" and creator type = "mash")
tell theLauncher to if it exists then delete
end tell

It's tenative name is Launcher Killer.
