Mike, thanks! It'll take some wading through those services, but I'm sure it'll help!

I found this guy's Web site a couple of years ago while working on something else, and he is impressive.

The think I was describing is something else, and I'll get it one of these days, I think. It even might be related to another problem I'm having. That's another thread I'll post one of these days, maybe next week, because it might take some doing.

(Hint: McAfee Internet chat support dude was totally useless. Worse than useless. Worse than getting help from a *rock*, because I wouldn't have wasted time with a rock.)

...I discovered this site: http://www.blackviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm
which offers tips on shutting down unneeded services that eat up CPU. I tried 
it, and I noticed a definite improvement. I recommend this guy -- the name is a 
little strange, but I've been happy so far.
