    Hello,


    I'm having the same problem. Have Windows 7 Version 6.1 (Build 7600). For what I know, the people who are having the same problem still have not managed to solve it.


    Could I be emailed the procedure to fix it when it's known?


    Also, I started a topic on the same matter but I can't seem to erase it. How do I erase it?


    Thanks!

    Hi again,


    When I start Windows I get the following message:


    BitDefender Firewall TDI Filter Driver has one or more drivers with known incompatibilities with this version of Windows. Please contact your software verder BitDefender to obtain a compatible version of the drivers prior to installing this software.


    I think the problem obveously has to do with Windows 7, at least in my case, because I also have Vista installed in the same computer and BitDefender works without problems.

    hello there, i'm having problem too with activating the Firewall. the network security button shows 'critical warning' and when i click on it, it shows 'firewall' and 'stealth mode' as disabled. unfortunately, when i checked both boxes and hit the 'fix all now' button, nothing happens.


    would appreciate if anyone can provide me with assistance, much thanks.

    I downloaded the 2 patches off the Bitdefender web site for uninstalling & re-installing the Firewall & then received a new error message saying that 'Bitdefender Firewall TDI filter Driver' is incompatible. Can you please assist.

    Hello returnal, Heddly and mnlk2,


    I'm going to start off by answeringmnlk2 :


    Unfortunately BitDefender 2009 is not officially supported on Windows 7, the only product that will be compatible with Windows 7 is BitDefender 2010 which is in a beta state at the moment.


    For returnal I sent the resolution on Ticket ID 200906011003405 and Heddly can find an e-mail under Ticket ID 200906011003413 .


    Please let me know if you received the e-mails and if the procedure was successful or not.


    Thanks!


    I recently purchased 8 copies of 2009 that do not expire for two years. I have just upgraded 5 PCs to Windows 7.


    Will I need to purchase 2010 or is it a free upgrade?


    Can you send me the rersolution?


    Thanks in advace.

    I am having a problem that seems to be similar to that here. I can't seem to get the firewall working in BD IS 2010. Not really sure what is going on I cant reinstall it through the network card/wireless settings as it is not showing up as an add. I guess the driver needs installing? Can you provide the instructions to me also please?

    Well it has been a week since I raised this query, and there has been no contact from BitDefender to assist.


    I have three months left before my license needs renewing but I can't use the program I have paid for. Therefore BitDefender I will go and update wth someone elses program because there is no way I would reward a company that won't assist their customers when so many of them are all having the same problem, by buying their update (just to be ignored again when the next problem comes along).


    I can see from other posts that nearly a year ago BitDefender new of this problem with Windows 7 yet they still haven't fixed it with a patch. It seems they were happy to continue to sell their product and not tell anyone of the compatibility issue though.
