I only looked because I've been meaning to do it for a while too.

By the way, if you use Vista, I don't know if that will work.

Just find the name of your service/s, use
NET STOP "Your service"
in a notepad file and save it as filename.bat.

You will only have to double-click it to stop your problem. You might have to google yourself to see if there's a command to take it out of the startup.

Cool. Thanks for the link, btw; I just spent all evening doing some long overdue backups and sorting out old crap to delete, so it wasn't at the top of my priority list tonight.  :)   I'll look into the startup business tomorrow and see what I can find.

iTunes = Do Not Want. There is really no need to stick to iTunes if the only feature you want is CD ripping. If I were you, I'd ditch it and find a less intrusive alternative.

Personally I use Exact Audio Copy (THE best CD ripper) and foobar2000 for CD-ripping. When I want to make really exact, accurate copies of borrowed CDs, I use EAC. If I just want to rip my own CD to transfer into my MP3 player, I use foobar2000. Both support freedb.

EAC adds eBay icon on your desktop by default. Remember to uncheck it when you install.

Awesome. i've been looking for a winamp alternative. (ZOMG, bloatware anyone?)

I'll second EAC as the best thing since sliced ciabatta. Do not know how I'd live without that nifty little piece of software.
