of processes was not existed when I installed Windows,

Task Manager simply monitors what's running. Perhaps new software or
hardware has been added since XP install - which need processes to run.

There is no such thing as the Default Status - new
Process are added with most new items of Software you
Install - be very careful before end-tasking anything on
there!

Have a look here - at the StartUp Tips...

The simple answer is yes. By uninstalling all applications
that were added after the initial install of XP. In other
words you will have to go back to the very begining. The
less programs you have start at bootup the less processes
that will show. So if you feel there are too many
processes running when you start your machine you need to
turn off some programs that start at boot and maybe
running in the background. To stop some programs from
starting when you turn your machine on you will need to go
into their configurations or setup options and you can
also go>start\run and type in msconfig and hit ok and then
click the startup tab and uncheck anything you don't need
to run at startup. Keep smiling.

Be careful with this though. If you don't know what something is, look it
up before disabling it. You could cause some problems with your system if
you disable something important.
