Can't find working drivers for Billionton USB bluetooth adapter.

So... I bought a Billionton USB adapter. Doesn't come with a driver CD. Nothing pops up in Windows (XP SP3) when I plug it in, so I googled setup guides and drivers. Installed some by Widcomm -- didn't work. Toshiba, didn't work, Fujitech, didn't work. Ones on the Billionton website -- didn't work.

All of them simply say no Bluetooth device was detected during their setup. Rebooting doesn't change anything. And the same thing happens on my other computer (Windows XP SP2).

So... is my adapter just a dud? Is there anything I can do? :(
