Note: there are many IDS free download links on webs, but you are not suggested to download and install one; because for one thing, most new IDS online is offered to test- that is, actually, they has been not tested before release; and for another, free new IDS usually may be expired within 3 days- that is, you cannot use them then. Also, IDS installlation is quite not easy.
---> you had better choose the one has been tested good, to avoid some unnecessary problem.
