That was exactly my problem... it was BitDefender Internet Security 2010... This had me so frustrated for weeks! You can also have TortoiseSVN work without disabling you Virus Protection :) Heres how, if you did not know already. First Open BitDefender2010 (Duh) -> Antivirus Tab -> In the Antivirus Section go to the 'Shield' Tab (it's usually the default Tab) -> Under 'Protection Level' click the 'Advanced Settings' button -> Under the Exclusions section there should be a box where you can add programs and files to be excluded from being blocked -> Click the little '+' box (Left of the little box with and arrow in it) -> Then go to "C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin" (Or where ever you installed TortoiseSVN to) -> Click the 'TortoiseProc.exe' and Hit 'Open'. Then in the box under the Exclusions Section it should read something like this. Path: "C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin" (Or where ever you installed TortoiseSVN) and then under Action it should say Allowed. After you do that click 'OK' then you can re-enable your Virus Protection (if it was not already before) and now you can run TortoiseSVN without having to disable the Virus Shield :) Wow, thank you so much!
