    Hello riptorn,


    For start, if you have Windows Vista please disable the User Account Control following the steps from the next link . After that, reboot your computer, then save and run the following patch: http://www.bitdefender.com/files/Knowledge...ystem_32bit.exe . Update BitDefender after that and everything should be ok .


    Thank you .

    Thanks very much for the quick response. Please pardon my ignorance, but am I correct in understanding that the free version of 2010 is an upgrade on the three year version of 2009 that I bought?


    Thanks again for the help.

    If you have a valid license key for BitDefender 2009 you can use it to register the same version of a 2010 BitDefender product . This action is free of charge and you will only have to uninstall the 2009 version from your system, install the 2010 version of BitDefender, then register it with your 2009 license key . You will have here the complete steps which will help you complete this process.
