Seems a bit of confusion around, but in several posts I have read, and the one below, you can only disable Defender in Vista not uninstall it as it will be part of the operating system.

Thats one thing I dislike about Windows, some software just cant be uninstalled. =/
It would be nice to be able to uninstall Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player, Windows Messenger, Outlook Express, etc.
Its your computer, you should be able to choose what is installed on it, and what is not.
An operating system should operate according to your wishes, not its own or somebody else.
