A short hiatus
It has been a week month since I have updated Vista Rewired, and you all must be wondering where all the updates went.
This happens to a very busy time of year for me, and it has been quite difficult to get around writing tutorials for the weblog. I will try my best to update whenever possible, but this weblog is not dead. I will continue to read and reply to your comments, and will update as soon as I am finished with my busy exams.
I hope you guys have been enjoying the tips and tweaks provided here. You are more than welcome to offer any feedback, suggestions, or criticism in the comments.
Thank you to all the loyal readers that have been supporting me, reading my articles, and commenting. So before you unsubscribe from RSS and remove Vista Rewired from your bookmarks, I will be back near the end of June with even better articles. Hope to see you then.
Just a quick shoutout to my buddy, Kevin, who has a great blog of his own as well.

Disable unnecessary services the quick and easy way
You have probably seen numerous service disabling guides around already. However, we have organized this tutorial differently. We have sorted them into categories so you can easily disable the ones that have little or no noticeable affect on the way Vista operates, but at the same time, improving performance.
I have only listed services for you to disable that have been activated by Windows by default. While you might have spent more time looking through the services to find which ones were actually activated on your PC, the ones listed here are actually enabled services on your PC if you haven’t already disabled them.
With over 134 services running in Windows Vista, it wouldn’t hurt to disable the ones you don’t need.
