If you installed from the package then there is an uninstall option 
available in the package.

Not sure how to help since the question doesn't seem to make sense to me.

AFS is a system facility, not a user facility.  The ability to access 
AFS is fundamental to the system and only the tokens to access a 
specific AFS area are specific to a user.  It sounds like you want to 
deinstall AFS from the system and then have your user account install 
it when you log in?

If AFS didn't install when the machine started up then you can "sudo 
/Library/StartupItems/OpenAFS/OpenAFS start".  You could move that 
directory somewhere else to prevent it starting automatically at 
boot.  It won't start up properly if the network is unavailable at 
boot for example.
