    I think this problem has been created in order to sell us malware and/or security programs. Most unhappy with pop-up.

    I didn’t have a Bing bar on my explorer screen. I didn’t see it listed in control panel for programs to uninstall. But I could see that it was executing in task manager, right clicked it, and found the location of the executable. I ended the process in task manager, then went and deleted the executable(s) and the folder they were in. The pop-up has not come again since.

    I have been trying to search out how to fix this last two weeks. It’s very useful form laptop repairing to give clue how to fix it.

    I only recieved this after installing skype. I did a restore and the problem went away.
    I installed skype again and it happened again, so I tried to restore again and
    somehow it was corrupted and windows slowed and got real jerky. It only got
    better after I reinstalled Firefox.. now I am back to the original Bsvc problem.

      If I could find the asshole who invented the BSvc processor, I swear I would strangle him/her. My problem started with downloading Skype 2 months ago and I have been stuck with this annoying problem ever since. I have followed every cure-all I have run across, but the issue still exists. And I am about to throw my laptop in the trash. Two questions: How do you recognize “optimization and utility” programs? And, is MalwareBytes a reliable program–with no side-effects? Thanks in advance , , ,

      Hello James.

      Yes MalwareBytes is fine for scanning your system for malware. We recommend using it. Yes this problem can be very annoying. Does it still occur after removing Skype completely?

    Dear Sir.
    I have examine the same problem and the same error message (bsvc Processoe has stopped ) and i made some changes to fix this problem so i discover the main problem in tow places 1- in the network sittings 2- when i changed the device the problem disappeared ) there is no relation between the error and viruses or windows system or bars, so try the following steps :
    1- check sittings of network
    2- check sittings of your dashboard connection
    3- check to connect with another dashboard connection
    4- remove any speed up internet software as cfos internet speeder or other speed network software
    4- reinstall your connect device software

    my respects to all

    There is literally nothing on this issue with respect to Windows 7. I have a client who’s machine is clean from a rootkit, virus, and malware standpoint. Bing Bar and Desktop have been removed. Java, Flash, and Windows are up to date. The system basically runs Office 2007, Chrome, Firefox, IE, and Skype (also up to date). The BSvcProcessor error pops up continuously as an APPCRASH. I’ve tried disabling the program in Data Execution Prevention but it will not let me. Nothing worked so far. The program reappears randomly and also as BSvcProcessor(1), meaning it appears to be replicating itself.
    This has all the earmarks of a virus, but nothing indicates this is happening. System Restore isn’t currently active on this box, so it looks like this is going to necessitate a Microsoft service call or a complete rebuild. Any other ideas?
