How do I uninstall Bitdefender Total Security 2010 from my computer completely?

This program sucks and it gave me a virus in the process of downloading it. It didn’t find anything to begin with when I ran the scan.

But it’s still on my Firefox dashboard and on it’s logo on the bottom right hand corner.
