I have the same problem, but i'm using Bitdefender Internet Security 2013 and VMWare Workstation 9
Is this patching still needed?
Hello

Please send me the logs via PM and I will further investigate this.
Thank you!
VMware Workstation 9, Bitdefender Sphere 2013. Same problem - Firewall prevent VMWare bridge work. My goal is to connect VMWare guest by VPN over internet.
Once i turn firewall OFF all goes fine, but even with lots of permissions and no visual restrictions firewall seem to cut off VMware traffic.
