xppro administrative tools

ok first off, are there any security issues with the non-default admin tools in xp-pro? if no than disregard this message.

but if yes, then how do i remove the ones that have been installed post winxp installation? none of them are in add/remove progs. and there is no option in control panel/administrative tools, to remove them.....ive googled, but since my cable is capped at the moment, its extremely hard to view websites with anything other than plain text, but from what i have been able to see, i havent found any useful info.

Are you sure they aren't in the "Add/Remove Windows Components"?

the add onl admin tools can help you improve security on your computer so unless you need the space on the hard drive leave them and have a read of the help and suport section for each tool as the info is very good
