Hello

Welcome to the forums!

Those are predefined rules created by the Firewall Team that include all the processes from the system and Microsoft software that come with the operating system.

We recommend you to keep the default settings in that section and adjust those settings only if you are advised by me or one of my colleagues.

Take care.

I thought I'd post this here seeing my issue is related to firewall settings.

I installed Bitdefender 3 days ago and I have noticed that I have a lot of port blocking going on; it seems to be really excessive. Some of these addresses I have traced, and a lot of them are by a provider Akamai Technologies.One address I traced to a house in Boston??Can you please give some insight on what is happening here- thanks.

Hello

A product update was released. Your build should be 16.24.0.1682(please right click on Bitdefender icon from system tray-near the clock-and choose "About". You should see in the left side the build number).

In order for the product update to be installed, you need to reboot your machine(you should see in the Events -> "Reboot required" under the Update module).
