Windows 2000 Services

Hi all,

Here's a page on the M$ site that explains the different services in Win2k:

Hope this helps.

I have found these sites to be very useful for learning about services in 2K/XP:

It's good for letting you know what services are safe to shut down. M$ turns on a lot of useless ones by default (thanks, guys!), so the descriptions are good for tweaking.
