    Well you can go to msconfig (start > run > msconfig) click the startup tab and un-check any un-nessecery items.

    It is OK to turn off services... just makes sure you know what you are turning off.

    There are several enabled by default services in 2k and xp that are not needed by most users...

    Visit www.blackviper.com for a good list to see what and why you need or don't need specific services. I wouldn't disable services via msconfig. use the service manager.. (start, run, services.msc)
    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    Or you can do what I do, open msconfig and google everything I don't know what they are then remove all un-nessecery items.
