Default Port Scan Show Universal Plug & Play port as Open

Hi,

I have completed a port scan which shows that my
universal plug and play port is open. Windows Update is
up to date and I also have a firewall "Zone Alarm Pro".

Zone alarm tells me a windows update should have cured
the problem and all information I find tells me that an
update has been released. I have tried to download a
patch but this does not work.

Any help with this would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul

There is a utility called Unplug and Pray. It will close
the upnp port for you. Quick and easy to use.
