Re: I know I'm an idiot. AV Software

As brush-head suggests use system restore to restore your system back to a
point 'prior' to you installing McAfee and Bitdefender.

Personally I wouldn't install McAfee at all. Bitdefender has anti virus
protection, so you don't need two and McAfee is rubbish anyway, so too is
Norton
