    Unless I misunderstand you, the progs you see are running. If just in the background. Do a Google on them to see what they are.

    Just don't shut down Systray or Explorer.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    I did a google search and almost every file listed is needed by WindowsXP. I guess that is why XP needs a lot of CPU power and RAM.

    This site lists a lot of common background tasks, and tells you if you need them or not...
