How do I uninstall... - SF100 - 2006-12-24
Being a long time windoze user I was drawn to antivirus software but I now realize I don't need it with Linux. I installed Bitdefender AV for Linux but now cannot find any trace of it to uninstall. How do I get rid of all traces of this.

what file did you download to install it in the first place ?
if it was an rpm file then uninstalling rpm's is as easy as
rpm -e package
where [package] is the rpm file you installed in the first place
if the program you installed was installed from source then the INSTALL file should give details of installation plus removal

To uninstall a .deb file, deselect it in your package manager, or type:
Code:
sudo dpkg -r package_nameHow do I uninstall... - SF100 - 2006-12-29
