The answer is quite complicated and you will need to be pretty tech-savvy to fix it: http://hothardware.com/cs/blogs/techliciousness/archive/2009/10/30/adventures-in-firewall-permissions-getting-bitdefender-to-work-with-netflix-watch-now-in-windows-media-center.aspx

Antivrus's block out what they think is harmful...and even though you know netflix isnt...it thinks it is. You could temporarily disable Bitdefender when you go to watch a movie...or possibly inside the options you could allow the site to do what it needs to do and for bit defender to leave it alone.

That probably isnt the best antivirus out there...but it is better than nothing. Make sure you dont have more than 1 antivirus installed because having 2 is always going to cause problems! They fight with each other and end up letting viruses in because they think each other are viruses.
