Uninstalling a security suite

I have a question that I hope someone will respond to. I'm getting ready to
update BitDefender Internet Security 2009 to the 2010 version. The 2009
version must be uninstalled first. When I install the 2010 version I will do
it on a clean boot. What I was wondering is, should the uninstall of the old
version also be done on a clean boot?

Or should they possibly both be done in safe mode? What would be the best situation to assure a smooth uninstall and install?

Safeboot if you can bitdefender may require a normal boot Un-install reboot to un register the the files then re-install.
