You might want to try looking in Device Manager and select 'View' and choose 'Show hidden devices' then 'View' again & 'Devices by connection'
This might show the (virtual) devices that seem to be installed. The other option is to run 'regedit' from the start menu (search bar). Try searching for anything relating to BitDefender and delete it. You may want to attempt 'regedit' in safe mode as it shouldn't load the devices your trying to delete.
You could also try the 'Change adapter settings' in the 'Network and sharing centre', from here you can 'Organize' & then 'Delete' them if they show up there.
One thing I had to do here when removing one adapter totally for the next one was first replug the one being removed in order to see that redetected and made visible. When appearing in the device manager>network adapters you then simply right click on the item and choose the uninstall option plus check off the remove drivers for device box.
Whether ethernet or usb you are then free to unplug any external plugin type adapter with assurance the drivers are gone. I've been doing that quite a bit lately for the 64bit 7 as well as the trying out routers for hard wire/wireless and the change of ISPs.

thanks, better late then never.
I try the regedit and device manager but I can't find them, probably I missed them. But I'm able to uninstall the bitdefender filter from my ethernet network adapter properties somewhere in 'network and sharing center', thanks to you guys.
it shows no more at WEI screen.
it solved.

First, from the start menu if you type 'Services' and select Services. Navigate to bitdefender & right-click and choose properties. Make sure that it's set to manual & stopped (see highlights in pic).
You can actually go one step further and disable that service entirely rather then the manual and stop option and not worry any longer. If you later find a need for it again you would return to see it enabled for use again at that time.
