Mine are as defaulted I believe, and while those 10 services are 
listed, none of them are enabled according to the screen I'm looking 
at, but let me check again.  Nope, nothing is enabled on the port 
forwarding->upnp screen.  Also, nothing has been entered on the port 
triggering screen.  And I'm not having any trouble from this side of 
router.  From the other side, I don't know but I'd just as soon that 
those services weren't shown as available.  All I really want to do 
is setup a torrent site for a few days.  I suppose I could have a 
friend hit me up with nmap to check.
