BuRnInICE is on a distinguished road

i'm a typical gamer, internet browser with broadband w/o ADSL and the services I disable are:

Alerter - manual
Automatic Updates (ewwwww) - disabled
Error Reporting Service - manual
Help and Support - manual
IPSEC - manual
Machine Debug Manager ( The mdm thing from office ) - manual
Messenger - manual ( This is not MSN messenger )
Portable Media Serial Number Service - manual
Protected Storage - manual
Remote Registry - manual
Wireless Zero Configuration - manual

I think that's about it.
Hope this helps

Oh and don't disable Task Scheduler or you will disable the prefetcher completely.
