Provides support to host Universal Plug and Play devices.
Used in conjunction with SSDP Discovery Service, it detects and configures UPnP devices on your home network.
For security reasons and for the fact that I doubt that you have any of these devices, disable this service.
If any EXTERNAL device does not function because of this service being disabled, place it back in to automatic.
MSN Messenger uses this service in conjunction with supported UPnP devices, to provide support for networks
behind a NAT firewall or router. Also, if you are experiencing difficulty connecting to multiplayer games
that use DirectX(7,8,9), place this service to automatic and ensure you download all security updates.
Furthermore, if you use Internet Connection Sharing and wish to make use of the "allow others to modify this
connection" feature, enable UPnP. Take note: UPnP is NOT PnP. UPnP is for connectivity on networks via TCP/IP to
devices, such as scanners or printers. Your sound card is PnP. Do NOT disable Plug and Play service.
