Vmware 8 No Internet Access On Win7 X64

Hi,


Product used: Bitdefender Internet Security 2012


Please help as I have searched the forum tried everything but on vmware 8 installed on windows 7 x64 I am unable to use internet on windows xp. The only time it works is if firewall and anti virus are turned off. Please advise how to make sure internet is not blocked on windows xp running on vmware 8!!


Thanks and Regards,


Dilmeet

    Could you please tell how to you connect to the internet on the real machine? Do you have a wireless connection? Do you used proxy?


    Do you have another security solution installed in the virtual machine?

  • According to this website, you need to turn off stealth on your network adapter in Bitdefender.


    I don't know witch version of BitDefender they are using in the review and if there is a better way to do this with BitDefender 2012.

    Hi :)


    A product update was released. Your build should be 15.0.37.1560(please right click on Bitdefender icon from system tray-near the clock-and choose "About". You should see in the left side the build number).


    In order for the product update to be installed, you need to reboot your machine(you should see in the Events -> "Reboot required" under the Update module).
