i did 10-15 seconds each time... used a regular screw driver under it and twisted lightly... i did NOT pry. just keep doing it in small increments till it comes off easily. the alum heats up much faster then then compound so it takes a little time.

Wouldn't you be able to just take some fishing string and run it under the heatsink to cut through the glue?
