There should be an option to set it to disabled in the drop down box for
startup type. You should see three options - automatic, manual, and
disabled. --- Steve

Can
you tell me how to disable? XP Pro SP2.

Hi Steven,
UPnP was not started but SSDP Discovery Service was started so I
stopped
that service. If I may ask you a question, do I need either of
these
services running if I want to run a home network or if I want to use
VOIP?

I became aware that UPnP, not to be confused with "Plug N Play",
by
default
is enabled on Windows XP systems and should be disabled. How and
where
do
I
check to see the current state of my systems UPnP services?

David,
I thought I was disabling the service but in actuality I was only stopping
the service. I do not see an option on how to disable the service, can you
explain how to disable .

You probably do not need it even if you are on a network. --- Steve

Yes, noise. That bugger yaps constantly trying to find every other UPnP
device on it's subnet. We finally turned off logging port 1900 traffic
because you couldn't see anything else!

Re: Universal Plug n Play or UPnP |

According to the resident MVP in the windowsxp.messenger group, it's almost
(if not completely) impossible to initiate a file transfer using Windows
Messenger from behind a non-uPnP NAT router. Apparently the latest versions
of MSN Messenger are better than Windows Messenger at dealing with this, but
MSN Messenger has its own problems.
Messenger (Windows or MSN) seems to be the best solution for transferring
large files over the Internet, short of setting up your own FTP server. It
doesn't have the file size limitations imposed by many ISPs on email
attachments. I don't do this often, but when I want to, I want it to work.
I guess I'll just enable uPnP when needed and turn it back off when done.

Not true. There are many software applications and hardware appliances
that use uPnP to
setup a uPnP compliant NAT device to properly open and/or forward needed
TCP and/or UDP
ports for proper communication.
