Stop Services

More resources


Not every service that is running on your machine is needed. Windows Networking has published a list that you may want to investigate.

The suggestion is to turn them off one at a time.

Disable unnecessary services to improve workstations performance

Services You Can Disable


And Blackviper.com

Some possibilities are:


Alerter -
Sends alert messages to specified users that are connected to the server computer.

Clipbook -
ClipBook permits you to cut and paste text and graphics over the network.

Fast User Switching -
Windows XP allows users to switch quickly between accounts, without requiring them to log off.
IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service -
You don't need this if you have other software to create CDs.

Messenger -
Transmits net send and Alerter service messages between clients and servers. This is how a lot of pop-up windows start appearing on your desktop.

Portable Media Serial Number -
Retrieves the serial number of any portable music player connected to your computer

Uninterruptible Power Supply Service -
Manages an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) connected to the computer.
