Bitdefender Services Are Loading Now, Please Wait

I have just installed Bitdefender Internet Security 2014 on a newly restored-to-factory and updated XP laptop and it seemed to install properly. The gadget was displayed and updates failed because it was still offline. When I rebooted, however; XP would not start, hanging with the Windows logo showing and the progression bar moving in short spurts. I then restored to last working configuration from the reboot options. This time, XP started but the Bitdefender widget never displayed. Hovering over the "B" logo displayed "Bitdefender services are loading now, please wait". After several minutes I became impatient and tried running Bitdefender from the start menu. The "B" logo turned dark and the window displayed the message "Bitdefender services are not responding." When I checked using Windows Task Manager the vsserv.exe process is not running.


I have had several Bitdefender issues lately with different computers running different operating systems. The biggest is that I cannot access download.bitdefender.com in a timely manner, that is, after several minutes the page is rendered as a style-less list of links and bitdefender updates do not download. The hoops that I have been jumping through for weeks have led to this situation because eventually I killed the operating system and had to start over. Can anyone help me get this thing off the ground again?

    Hello edfaught,


    Thank you for reporting this situation.


    To be able to help you further, please follow the steps below:


    1. Save this tool on the PC, then run it:


    http://www.bitdefender.com/files/Knowledge...efender_SPT.exe


    2. Follow the on-screen steps. When the progress bar gets to the end click "Finish". A new archive will appear on your desktop. The name starts with "BDSP_....".


    3. You may not be able to upload the archive here as it's too big so you can put it on www.sendspace.com or any other file hosting site and post the download link.


    I am waiting for your answer. Thank you.

  • I have the same problem. I've run the BDSP Tool. It generated an 8MB ZIP file. I don't have a cloud account where I can post it. Are there any individual file I can post or email?


    thanks!

  • This is one Bitdefender recommends, it only takes a couple of clicks to make an account and drag your file into it.
