also disabling UPnP feature for windows is a security tip, if i remember corretly.

about that, if you want to be really secure... start -> run and type

net stop upnphost

press ENTER, wait until the black window goes away. this stops the upnp service.

then open regedit, go to key



look for the dword value called "Start" in the right panel and set its value to 4. done

of course this breaks upnp connectivity but i think port forwarding is cooler but for X reason you may need the upnp service...

i need upnp because sometimes my router doesn't remember my port forwarding settings.

does your router support nat-pmp? because if so, you could use that and be a little more safe :)

Well,it does break UPNP conectivity but disabling it along with other settings might double up you bandwith using Utorrent !! (I will provide a whole Tutrial once I get home for Doubling your download speed using Utorrent)
