My task manager has too many running processes. They slow
down my computer a lot. What should I do?

All I can suggest, is identify what is necessary and what isn't, these two links
should assist you, especially the 2nd one

All about disabling programs at startup

Who said? Someone who is trying to impress you with his/her "lack" of
knowledge? I have a pretty plain XP Pro setup, Antivirus, ZoneAlarm,
and a few other things - keep as much as possible not to autostart
(things like checking for updates, upgrades, etc) - most of the little
do-dads in the lower right hand corner - I despise software that
thinks it should startup because I turned on my computer (and I'm a
programmer). Anyway, I have 45+- a few, running.
