Process is also called service! My system is based on the introduction of the following article, which saves a lot of useless processes!
Service comparison table that can be disabled in WindowsXP.
Service is actually a special application type in Win2000/XP/2003, but it runs in the background, so we can't see it in the task manager.
After installing WinXP, the system usually starts many services by default, and some services are not used by ordinary users at all, which not only occupies system resources, but may also be used by hackers.
View the service items being enabled.
Take WinXP as an example. First, you should log in as a system administrator account or a user with administrator rights, then enter "cmd.exe" in "Run" to open a command line window, and then enter "netstart" to display the services that the system is running.
In order to view the information of various services in more detail, we can double-click "Services" in "Start → Control Panel → Administrative Tools", or directly enter "Services.msc" in "Run" to open the service setting window.
Shut down, disable and re-enable services.
Services are divided into three startup types:
1. automatic: If some useless services are set to automatic, they will start with the machine, which will prolong the system startup time. Generally, services closely related to the system must be set to automatic.
2. Manual: Start only when necessary.
3.Disabled: indicates that the service will not be started again even if necessary, unless it is modified to the above two types.
If we want to shut down a running service, just select it and select "Stop" in the right-click menu. But the next time you start the machine, it may run automatically or manually.
If the service item is really useless, you can choose to ban the service. Select "Properties" in the right-click menu, and then select "Disabled" in the "General → Startup Type" list, and the service will be completely disabled.
If you need to restart later, just select "Automatic" or "Manual" here; You can also use the command line "netstart? Service name? " To start, such as "netstartClipbook".
Services that must be banned
1.NetMeeting gremotedesktopsharing: allows authorized users to access each other on the network through netmeeting. This service is of little use to most individual users, and the opening of the service will also bring security problems, because the service will send the user name to the connected client in clear text when surfing the Internet, and the hacker's sniffer program can easily detect these account information.
2. Universal PlugandPlayDeviceHost: This service provides support for universal plug and play devices. There is a security hole in this service, and the computer running this service is vulnerable to attack. As long as an attacker sends false UDP packets to a network with multiple WinXP systems, these WinXP hosts may attack the designated hosts (DDoS). In addition, if a UDP packet is sent to the 1900 port of this system, so that the address of the "Location" domain points to the chargen port of another system, it may cause the system to fall into an infinite loop and consume all the resources of the system (manual startup is required when installing hardware).
3.messenger: commonly known as Messenger service, computer users can use it to exchange data in the local area network (transmitting NetSend and Alerter service messages between the client and the server has nothing to do with WindowsMessenger. If the service stops, no alert message will be sent). This is a dangerous and annoying service. Messenger service is basically used for enterprise network management, but spam and junk advertising manufacturers often use this service to publish pop-up advertisements titled "Messenger Service". Moreover, there are loopholes in this service, which are quickly spread by MSBlast and Slammer viruses.
4. Terminal service: Allow multiple users to connect and control a machine, and display desktops and applications on remote computers. If you don't use the remote control function of WinXP, you can disable it.
5.RemoteRegistry: Allows remote users to modify the registry settings on this computer. Registry can be said to be the core content of the system. Generally, users are not advised to modify it themselves, let alone let others modify it remotely, so this service is extremely dangerous.
6.FastuserSwitching compatibility: provide management for applications that need help under multi-users. WindowsXP allows fast switching between multiple users on a computer, but there is a loophole in this function. When you click "Start → Logout → Quick Switch" in the traditional login mode and repeatedly enter the user name to log in, the system will think it is a brute force crack and lock all non-administrator accounts. If it is not used frequently, the service can be banned. Or cancel "Use Fast User Switching" in "Control Panel → User Account → Change User Login or Logout Mode".
7.Telnet: Allows remote users to log on to this computer and run programs, and supports various TCP/IPTelnet clients, including computers based on UNIX and Windows. Another dangerous service, if started, remote users can log in, access local programs and even use it to modify your ADSLModem and other network settings. Unless you are a network professional or the computer is not a server, it must be banned.
8.PerformanceLogsAndAlerts: Collect performance data of local or remote computers according to pre-configured scheduling parameters, and then write these data into logs or trigger alarms. In order to prevent data from being searched by remote computers, it is strictly prohibited to use it.
9. Remote Desktop Session Manager: If this service is stopped, Remote Assistance will be unavailable.
10.tcp/ipnetbioshelper: NetBIOS is commonly used for attacks under Win9X, and it can also be disabled for users who do not need files and print * * *.
Services that can be banned
The above ten services pose a great threat to security, and ordinary users must disable them. There are also some services that ordinary users can ban as needed:
1. Alarm: Notifies the selected users and computers about the alarm of system management level. If you are not connected to the LAN and do not need to manage alarms, you can disable it.
2.IndexingService: Indexing the contents and attributes of files on local and remote computers to provide quick access to files. This service is of little use to individual users.
3. Application layer gateway service: provide support for third-party protocol plug-ins for Internet connection and Internet connection firewall. If you don't have Internet access enabled or the built-in firewall of WindowsXP, you can disable this service.
4. Uninterruptible power supply: Manage the uninterrupted power supply connected to the computer, which can be disabled by users without UPS.
5.PrintSpooler: Load the file into memory for later printing. If the printer is not installed, you can disable it.
6. Smart card: Manage the computer's reading authority on smart cards. Basically useless, you can disable it.
7. SSDPIsoveryService: Start automatically discovering upnp devices on the home network. There are not many devices with upnp, and this service is useless to us.
8.AutomaticUpdates: automatically update patches from the WindowsUpdate network. Upgrading with WindowsUpdate function is too slow. It is recommended that you download the patch to the local hard disk through the multi-thread download tool before upgrading.
9. Clipboard: Enables Clipboard Viewer to store information and share it with remote computers. If you don't want to share information with a remote computer, you can ban it.
10.Imapicd-burning comservice: manage CD recording with imapi. Although WinXP has this function built in, most of us will choose professional burning software, and we can disable this service if we don't have a burner installed.
1 1. Workstation: Create and maintain client network connections to remote services. If the service stops, none of these connections will be available.
12. ErrorReportingservice: Error reporting is allowed when services and applications run in nonstandard environments. If you are not a professional, this error report is of no use to you at all.
Furthermore, the following services have no influence on ordinary users, and they can decide whether or not to choose, such as: RoutingandRemoteAccess, NetLogon, NetworkDDE, NetworkDDEDSDM.
