Net Zone Shows X

Hi


When looking in the security centre it shows both Firewall and Steath Mode disabled and when clicking on the fix action or fix all now button nothing happens. I went to the Firewall settings and clicked on the "Firewall is Disable" box I get the following message "Failed to initialize Bit Defender Firewall drivers. Firewall Disabled"


Can anyone tell me in simple terms how I fix the Steath Mode and Firewall problems?


Thanks

    I installed the trial version of Total Security 2008 nearly two weeks ago. I am also getting the red X in the Net zone. It began yesterday, when I started getting Windows Security Center warnings that BitDefender was disabled and my computer is at risk. When I click the popup, Security Center shows my antivirus and firewall, however, are ON and BitDefender shows no issues to fix. However, the red X stays in the Net Zone box continually unless I restart my computer. After a few minutes, it happens again. What is happening? As I mentioned, this only began yesterday.

    since yesterday, I get the 'Bitdefender is disabled' popup every 1-2 minutes.


    from time to time computer frozes, and I have to restart it.


    when doing a manual update, the file 'lang/l_bdagent.ini' gets installed every time.


    I tried to repair Bitdefender, than did a fresh install, and I'll never get back those almost two hours.


    btw, if I bought a license of bitdefender TS 2008 for 3 computers, and I only installed it on the same computer (twice) in a few weeks span, I hope that won't count for two computers.


    I HAVE to mention that I used Mcafee until now for years with no issues whatsoever, and now I feel like a jackass because I give BitDefender a try.


    If you are undecided whether you should buy BD or mcafee, take it from a user of both - don't buy BD

    It's about the same problem.
