Plex Media Server Web Streaming Being Blocked By Bitdefender

Lately, I have been struggling a LOT with Bitdefender. From BSODs with my VPN (that are taking ages to be looked at by support) to having PLEX web streaming constantly blocked by the firewall... Bitdefender is just becoming sort of a nightmare. I really appreciated the "ease" of use, the autopilot mode, making life easier for users! BUT... It is just driving me insane!


Can anyone please help me preventing my firewall to close the connections when I am streaming via Plex on my computer?


Cheers

    How do you know it is the firewall? - I also seem to have a problem with Plex since I installed BD. But it manifests as the "Loading .." screen coming up , while I assume data is buffered , then the movie continues for a few minutes when the cycle repeats.
