firefox msn and google toolbar seem to be obvious ones for me. get enditall and use it aswell

you can kill theses manual or use end it all but

 

firstly that google update is a nuiscance

to get rid of it complty do this,

 

kill the process in task manager, then goto your google programe folder, (c drive)

you should see google update.exe- cant rember full file name, delete this file

 

then goto start buton , in the run box type services.msc,

 

youll get a control panel witha lis of running services,

 

look for google updater and right click on it, goto properties,

on this page if its stiil says running wich it sholdnt press stop.

 

you should also see startup drop down menue,

 

choose disable then click apply, should solve it but for complete remedy you'd need to regedit

but that may be a lil trick for you,

 

other services you can kill

 

usnsvc.exe - relates to mesnger sharing folders, shouldnt be running wen msnger isnt

 

spoolsv.exe is a print spooler

 

lexpps

lexbces

lxbkbmgr all relate to lexmark printer so can kill um

 

ctfmon relates to office software monitoring

 

pdvdserv relates to powerdvd

 

calmain should be related to cannon digital camera software

 

you can change some of these to manual start up or disable runing at startup

 

either trough sevices.msc in the run box, or msconfig services tab

but if ya dont know what ya doin leave well alone

If you don't have any problems and everything is running fine and fast, then if your not 100% sure what your doing it may be better to leave it alone lol
