I have a HP Pavilion XT963 with WindowsXP Home Edition Installed on it. I
only use my computer to surf the internet, download some stuff once in a
while, get email, some MS Word, Excel. Just your basic crap. Also I am the
only user on this computer, my wife uses it also but we do not use separate
logons, just the administrator.


Are there certain Services that start up when I reboot my computer that I
should leave alone and just let run? i.e. Background Intelligent Transfer
Service or Fast User Switching Capability

What about process that are running in the background? i.e. lsass.exe or
winlogon.exe?

Is there a place I can go (website) that has allot of this info?


Thanks for the help!
