 Under the current (V2.3.0) Windows port, Pidgin always sends out Universal
 Plug and Play (UPnP) requests.  There are no configuration or plug-in
 options to disable this advertisement.  Being able to block these
 broadcasts would reduce the surface exposure of Pidgin and provide an
 alternative from the non-scalable kludge of blocking this request via host
 firewalls.  All other network traffic seems to be controllable from the
 client.

 Providing a configuration option (or a plugin) to disable the user to
 disable UPnP is requested.
