need a program to shutdown background processes

[DEVELISH]

I installed but the site keeps timing out when I seach for processes.

I don't think the site is updating anymore.

Now that you have a clean system *grin* you might want to run this: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sys.../Autoruns.mspx

M$ bought Sysinternals a few months ago and made all tools available. Autoruns should do the job you need
