To delete a service.

Open Services...
Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down to and double click the service you want to get rid of |
On the General tab, Service name: take note of the Service Name not the
Display Name | Close Services

Then open a command prompt...
Start | Run | Type: cmd | Click OK |

Type: sc delete Whateverservice Display Name

and hit Enter

Reboot.

See...
sc delete
here...

Or open the Registry Editor...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | Click OK |
Navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Whateverservice

Delete it and reboot.

that method only disable it.

get HiJackThis to delete the registry line for various startup programs/dll

http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/#introduction

"HijackThis examines certain key areas of the Registry and Hard Drive and
lists their contents. These are areas which are used by both legitimate
programmers and hijackers. It's up to you to decide what should be removed.
Some items are perfectly fine. You should not remove them. Never remove
everything. Doing that could leave you with missing items needed to run
legitimate programs and add-ins."

Do Start>Run>services.msc [enter]

Scroll down to the service, stop it, and disable it. Apply/OK out.
