"services.msc" in the start/run box and right click/properties to change
the particular one you want altered Duncan. Have you got a good registry
cleaner? Revo uninstaller and ccleaner are good apps for clearing out the
junk left behind by removed programs and have a great day!

Can a Service be removed/deleted?
(WinXPpro SP3)
I am working a chronic problem on one client. It liked to just
stop/stall. It does not BSOD. I tracked errors in the event viewer to my
Brother AdminPro application. Fine. I removed/deleted this app 48 hours
ago. Yes, I do suspect some "left-behinds." Today, this client
"froze/stopped" again still pointing at the Brother app removed before.
Odd methinks! Dug some more and I find a Brother Scheduler Service in
my Services window. It is stopped and manual. I now have it Disabled.
I will watch for another 24 hours. I have read all the Help about
Services. I see nothing about Service deletion.
Thanks,
Duncan
