I'll tell you right now, if you have web rebates on that machine, you've got 
problems, that's spyware, completely trashed my old computer when I let some 
one borrow it and they got that on there but if you want a list of what I'd 
disable, I'll tell you. if the computer is running slow or anything though, 
web retabes is your piggest problem, I had to format to get rid of it. 
ANyway, things I'd disable are, maybe that sound card thing, that's just a 
mixer unless you really play with audio you don't need that,

new.net (believed to be spyware)
> cmesys
> chlrschload
> web rebates (bad spyware)
CCevtMngr
> NProtect? *(not sure what this is so check first)
> > > GStartUp
> MicrosoftOffice Startup

Note, most of this I know is spyware and a royal pain to remove and will 
only come back checked again. Just about all but office startup.
