Cool SSDP problems

Hi all,

Just to say that I discovered that my pc was running rather sluggish. After calling up task manager i noticed one of the SVChost.exe's was using up 30% to 40% of CPU. strange!

After sliding over to your forum I discovered your excellent find that the SSDP discovery service was trying to start itself over and over, and getting nowhere! So, I promptly disabled the startup of this service and BANG nor more CPU usage! Great stuff!

1, how the hell did you discover this was the cause?
2, why was it not able to start?
3, is there any negative effects with disabling it?

Thanks again for the great find!
