I want to install internet security software, but how do I know if I just uninstall mcafee will not interfere and cause problems?

I just uninstall mcafee IPSec 2011 - it was terrible and my computer is running much faster without it. I need to find a free internet security that is compatible with Vista I have no protection at the moment, but I want to know how can ensure me that mcafee has really disappeared from my computer before installing anything else. I ask because I did a scan with windows defender after that I uninstalled mcafee, but I've seen yet the elements of mcafee were wiped out...

hoping someone can help out me!
