It keeps popping up in my process list after I manually end it.

Yes, I've disabled it with services.msc and no, it won't STAY disabled.

And no, there's no "Windows Search" or similar entry in the Add/Remove list
-- or the Installer Clean Up utility or anywhere else on the HD that I can
find -- in order to uninstall it.

I'm sure someone will ask me WHY I would even want it gone, so let me head u
off. First, it's a resource hog -- it sits there, does nothing for me, yet
eats up, on average, 25MB of memory. Second, I never use it. Third, because
of reasons 1 & 2, it annoys me that it refuses to stay down.

So, the $64,000 is... how do I get RID of this blasted thing once and for
all, w/o getting rid of (or reinstalling) XP (SP3) in the process?

TIA
