Default I remember seeing an O2 sensor socket somewhere.

Basically, it's like a regular socket, except it has a slit down one sit so that you can manage the wire, and fit the socket over the top of the sensor. Once you can get some torque on it, it should come out pretty easily. If not, I'm sure a shot of liquid wrench would help.
