it's not in my start menu and there's no Bitdefender folder in my
program files. Why does Windows Vista seem to think that I have
Bitdefender Antivirus?

Re: This problem was caused by Bitdefender Antivirus
BitDefender Anitvirus software has nothing to do with Avast. There are some other antivirus software that are using the BitDefender scan engine, but that's not the case here.
The problem is probably caused by an old nick-name of Windows Defender.
