    Hello :)


    Welcome to the forums!


    I would recommend keeping Intrusion Detection System (IDS) turned OFF.


    This will help increase system responsiveness and will allow common programs to run without much effect on your system's security. To turn IDS off, please follow these steps:


    - open Bitdefender, click on Settings, go to the "Firewall" panel


    - in the "Settings" tab from the top, set "Intrusion detection system" to OFF


    Take care.
