1. Click Start and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Administrative Tools.
3. Click Services
4. In the Startup type list, choose Disabled

If you make a change, I'd suggest doing one at a time, and restarting to be sure you didn't foul anything up, and keep notes so you can revert the change back if necessary.
