msconfig

Hey there, Is there anyway that I can find out what all
of those programs are that are running on my computer.
When I pull up my "System Configuration Utility" from
the "Run" program (msconfig) and I click on
the "services" tab it shows me a list of programs running
but I don't know which of them are useful or not.

thanks this would be a big help!

Hi Ron,

in system configuration utility when you click on services
tab, check the box at thte bottom which says that hide all
microsoft services,and then uncheck the services which you
see.
infact this can be risky but to disable all the third
party services you can do it.

what happens exactly is that some programs try to gain
control on windows or the important windows services.
