Which services can I turn off in XP Pro?

[Frank]

I have installed XP Pro on my PC at home. I'm sure I
don't need all of the services that load at start up.
I have a USB adsl modem connection only and no networking
or domains etc. Can anyone tell me which services I can
disable that I don't need?


Many thanks for any help.
