I take it this doesn't apply to 3 Letter agency's or to the government or the ISP'S just on internet trolls

Somewhat of an oxymoron is it not; safety and the Internet?

I guess the Bitdefender folks decided to take the day off and celebrate?

Bitdefender Ironically Stopped Working on Safer Internet Day

Ironically on what has become known as Safer Internet Day, users of Bitdefender Antivirus are reporting today that the security software has suddenly stopped working. After installing an update, Bitdefender users are seeing errors that state "Bitdefender Security Service has encountered a critical error!" or "The Bitdefender Security Service (vsserv.exe) is unavailable at the moment" .

Both of these errors appear to be caused by a new update pushed by Bitdefender that has caused the program to not be able to communicate in some manner with the vsserv.exe executable. This executable is part of the Windows service called Bitdefender Virus Shield.

User's on Bitdefender's forums have reported installing a routine update, which then caused an error to appear that stated "Bitdefender Security Service has encountered a critical error!".
