[SalesForce] Data Loader for Professional Edition Salesforce That Does Not Use API

I am working on a project to clean out old tasks and would like to be able to export all tasks including those which are archived and then upload a list of activity IDs for the ones which I would like to delete.

I would normally use Export All in Dataloader and then mass delete through Dataloader to do this. Unfortunately this is a Professional Edition of Salesforce which does not have API enabled.

What alternative tool could I use that does not require an API connection and is compatible with Salesforce Professional Edition for mass updating/deleting data like the Dataloader. I have heard the Excel Connector may be an option, but does this require API?

FYI I am a Mac user as well if this makes a difference

Depending on just how many records you intend to do at once you can use the Data Import Wizard with practically any edition of Salesforce; limited to 50,000 records per run. It is compatible with Safari 5 or later.
