    You can stop/start services.
    Winlogon? Don't know what you mean exactly.

    I will advise you to visit the site. There is a lot to read and to see.
    Or just give it a try and play around with it.

    I use Win Patrol. I am not sure if it is as extensive as some others, but I am able to disable or enable the processes that it shows.

    Is it as effective as the other programs mentioned?

    Thanks,
    Jerry
