I'm on w98se without connection sharing. This damn thing seems to be
built in to ms messenger as well. There doesn't seem to be any way to
turn it off--unless someone knows a cool registry hack.
Luckily my firewall is refusing to pass UDP 1900, returning it to the PC
marked destination unreachable. But I'd much rather not have it happen
at all.
Nice one Microsatan: yet another application with busted security that I
run whether I want to or not.
