Windows Vista Network Discovery

Recommended Posts

Hey there chaps. A quick question regarding Windows Vista's Network Discovery: how can I turn it off and make sure it's never activated unless I actually frickin' tell it to be. I always turn it off on the network and sharing center options; but it keeps turning itself back on every time I reconnect. Very annoying. Why have Microsoft even done this?

 

Anyway if you can help I'd be most grateful.

Is it giving you trouble with lag spikes? Vista completely ruined online gaming for me as I'd get a spike every minute or two trying to play TF2 or the like; incidentally I've no such issues with Windows 7.

 

Anyway, when I was still on Vista I ended up installing this. It's free, unobtrusive, can start with Windows and stops those annoying background scans.
