If you have no need for Universal Plug and Play Device Host or SSDP
Discovery Service, disable them in Services.

Read the links. Your BIOS has *nothing* to do with it.

the top is my ISP. The bottom is my email spam [popfile] setting minus the
1900. popfile doesn't use the specific defined port. It uses smtp and pop.
the bottom one for the machine is a surprise to me.

here's a quick hint you might put away for future reference. You don't always
have to scroll with well written programs. ie: the above as example, just hit
the letter 'S' and it'll bypass A-R and jump right to the S entries. then
scroll for about 4 entries to ssdp.

The same refs to 1900 appeared after a reboot. What I assume the need to
connect to the Internet over 1900 with svchost is for windows updates.
