Just now, for about 2 minutes ESET Services was running at 100% CPU usage and damn near crashed my PC with how absolutely slow it began to run with the apps I had open at the time. 

What the heck was it and how I can get this app to NEVER do that again??? I've had this security program installed for YEARS and this is the first it's done this. I even tried stopping the process in Task Manager and it told me "Access Denied" even though the PC account is Administrator?

What occurred just prior to this activity? Was a Win OS or Office update running?

Not sure, no updates were being done or anything... in fact I was in a Discord call when suddenly the whole system went slow. Pulled up Task Manager and saw it was 100% CPU and was not able to be terminated despite my account being the sole account on my PC.

You have logging enabled for the default (internal) firewall rule Block incoming SSDP (UPNP) requests for svchost.exe:

If you toggle display of the default rules, you will be able to disable logging. Afterwards delete "C:\ProgramData\ESET\ESET Security\logs\epfwlog.dat"  in safe mode.
