Hi

I'm tryin to "administer" a network of 10 XP machines
I've noticed via Snort that there is a lot of uPnP traffic coming from 5 of these machines. I've disabled the SSDPSRV and UPNPHOST services on these computers and applied the Q315000 uPnP buffer overrun patch onto these machines

But to still no avail!
It's not choking the network, but would like to keep the network traffic clear and close potential security holes as well

Am I missing anything?!?! Why are these machines still sending out uPnP packets?!?! what's going on?!!?

Help

Thanks
