Depending on the type of pad you have, this will differ.

Usually if it has a barrier, like a solid red or blue plastic attached, this side goes up. If there is netting of some sort, this side also goes up.

What side of the carpet padding goes up?

Some carpet paddings have a webbing or moisture barrier coating on one side. If you're installing over wood floors the moisture barrier goes up to prevent spills from soaking into the padding. If installing over cement below ground level the moisture barrier goes down, against the concrete - to prevent condensation and ground seepage from penetrating through the pad.

How do you remove carpet pad?

The padding is simply stapled to the subfloor in most cases. If it is stapled down, just rip out the padding in pieces as large as possible. There will be small pieces of padding still stuck to the staples. Now you can either pull up the staples one by one using a staple remover (this will take a long time) or there is a scraper tool you can buy at home improvement tools that you can scrape along the floor to remove the remaining staples and padding.
