Just remove it from android market and then download/install it again from android market.
Also, after you do that, it's always good to check if you have the lates su binary.
Can you go into terminal and type su to get #?
the problem is there's no "uninstall" option for me in the market...no it wont give me permission when I type su
Damn I read about this exploit last night and decided to take the morning off to apply it to the Prime - seems like someone beat me to it.
Anyway the exploit works fine, if you have no understanding of adb/Unix stay far away from it till someone makes a one-click root tool.

if you type su and you're not getting #, then something is going wrong. I'll PM you.

I had the same problem, believe something went wrong with 'adb rm /data/local/su'
su is a system app now.
Go to apps, stop and clear superuser, restart.
It worked for me.
Thanks...

Worked Great!! Thanks!
just wondering though...shouldn't this:
adb rm /data/local/mempodroid
adb rm /data/local/su
be this?
adb shell rm /data/local/mempodroid
adb shell rm /data/local/su
as rm is a linux shell cmd?

right. going to go fix it now, although, it shouldn't really matter it's just cleaning up the files

mine gave me an error when i tried the rm commands as well, what i did was:
adb shell
cd /data/locak
rm mempodroid
rm su
exit
adb reboot
mine seems to be working fine with root access.
thanks OP!

50** This is completely unsupported!!!!!!! **
ALL credit goes to saurik for the root method, Jason A. Donenfeld (zx2c4) for finding the exploit, alpharevx for finding the offsets and initial confirmation on the Transformer Prime and viperboy for finding it and posting it in his thread. I did not research, find, or develop this root method!
Mods, if I've done anything wrong, please feel free to remove this thread.
You will need to know how to use ADB commands, otherwise, use viperMOD PrimeTime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Downloads:
mempodroid binary
su binary
Root:
adb push mempodroid /data/local
adb push su /data/local
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid
/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
** You should now be in a remote shell session with root (indicated by #)
mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
** IF you have previously rooted your Prime, run the following two commands. They may throw an error that the file a file was not found.
rm /system/bin/su
rm /system/xbin/su
cat /data/local/su > /system/xbin/su
chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su
chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su
rm /data/local/mempodroid
rm /data/local/su
exit
exit
adb reboot
After your Transformer Prime comes up, install Superuser from android market.
HOPEFULLY everyone has learned their lesson and will also install Voodoo Rootkeeper as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! R
Enjoi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Changed the mount command - thanks viperboy!
Added steps to possibly resolve issues with previously rooted systems
Changed a few steps to be a little bit easier.

Some people are reporting issues with this method. I suspect this is due to previously having root or other altered files. A method that has worked for some is to update to 9.4.2.11.1 and then following the above procedures. Please note, this firmware release is unofficial and at this time THERE IS NO DOWNGRADE PATH.3Thanks for the download link to 11.1 guys. Downloading now to get my Prime to 100% stock. I hope to have a working PrimeTime root before I work in 2 hours2
That is not really the issue, it is that run-as does not get to the point in the code that pushes the rooting exploit code into memory. That comes after the "are you root or shell" check, and it should therefore not be possible unless you are one of these users. My guess is that this individual either had root in his console already or is mistaken. Or maybe he will teach us all something.2
you forgot to mention alpharevx who actually put the effort in to confirm it was working, and finding the offsets required for mempodroid.
also.
Code:adb push mempodroid /data/local adb push su /data/local adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid adb shell /data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 mount -o remount,rw '' /system adb shell /data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
could be done as
Code:adb push mempodroid /data/local adb push su /data/local adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid adb shell [INDENT]/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh mount -o remount,rw '' /system[/INDENT]
