Try this:
set list of DeskTopPublishingPackages to (all DTP applications)
check list for all apps whose names are (PageMaker)
delete all apps whose names are (PageMaker)

Seriously, though. We have upwards of 10,000 PM technical documents in our
system, so changing to Quark or something else would be a major undertaking.
I have also been trying to script PageMaker (we use v6.5). Apparently, this
App has an INCREDIBLY powerful scripting language. Unfortunately, without a
180 IQ and a degree in nuclear physics, learning it may be challenging.
Has made some great suggestions for resources (he helped save my butt). I
did not find alot of help at the Adobe Forums, though. Let me know if you
find another list/resource. I'd also be greatly interested in any script you
find/develop to return a list of broken image links in PM files. We have
similar problems which we currently handle individually as they appear.
Good Luck - Jerry me
