Recently, when reviewing the list "services" running on my WinXP SR/2
machine (launch compmgmt.msc from the RUN window), I observed that
"Remote Registry" and "Help and Support" services are being
automatically started with each machine start-up. It would seem to me
that these "services" should not be enabled as my computer is not
serviced by some MIS organization.
It would seem that leaving them enabled would increase the
susceptibility of my machine to potential hackers. Am I correct? If so,
how do I change things so that neither of the services are launched on
start-up?
