Firewall Network Setting Are Lost After Reboot!

Hi all,

Well I've looked on the forum and seen this is a problem others have suffered and was claimed to have been fixed in an update, well I guess its back.

I had the same issue some time ago and did all Tech support asked me to do and yes after an update it stopped and all was well. Well 4 days ago I re-installed my Win7 (x64) system and re-installed Bitdefender Internet Security 2011 and then did a full program update to ensure all files etc. were the latest and to my shock the old problem has returned.

I downloaded the latest off-line install file, used the uninstall tool and did a complete Bitdefender re-install hoping this would fix it, well it didn't and so I used the repair tool in Bitdefender and that hasn't fixed it. I have even tried the fix I found on here by Danny Dan and its still happening.

I'm getting very tired of having to set my firewall network type to "Home/Office" (VPN=Off, Stealth=Remote, Generic=Yes) as I shared my media (music etc) hard drive partition across my home network and unless I add the IP address to the Network Zone I can't access my hard drive from my other PC's.

Does anyone have a fix for this firewall issue or does anyone know how I can share my media hard drive partition with my other PC's without having to add the other PC's IP address to Bitdefender's Firewall Network Zone??
