Can I disable the Terminal Services if I don't use remote assistance/remote desktop?

I use can I have Vista 32 bit home premium

I thought that Vista have no remote desktop? Is not Terminal identical remote desktop services?

When I go

MyComputer > right click > properties > remote adjustment

the box for "Allow remote Assisnatnce" is NOT COCHEE

But when I run Netstat - ano, I see that port 3389 is listening svchost.exe process when I checal what services are related to this particular svchost.exe, I see the following services:

Cryptographic services
DNS client
network location awareness
KtmRm for distributed transaction coordination
telephony

and Terminal Server services

Seems to be at a point several years ago, I allowed someone from microsoft to help me through the assistance at a distance could therefore have enabled or downloaded services Terminal Server?

In any case, I think that Terminal Services is initially port 3389 to remain open and thus get an unsolicited connection attempts from different IP addresses.

I tried a little experiment and finished the Terminal Services and changed the status of manual start-up. When I still ran netstat - ano, he showed no listening on port 3389

However, when I rebooted my computer Terminal Server was running again. So I ended it again but this time off the service. When I fell net stat - ano he showed terminal services does not. then when I restarted my computer, Terminal Server services do not have turn on port 3389 has not been shown that listening

SO my question is, as a user of Vista which doesn't use remote help desk or remotely.

1. I CAN keep the disabled Services Terminal Server?

2. it cause me any problem of operation or security if she stays in the disabled state?

3 have disabled will cause me to not be able to get the scheduled updates?

Thank you

But I have been informed by Norton Personal asa require a Terminal Server Services be, nit for the part of remote assistance, but for other reasons. They say I can't turn off

    Yes, I KNOW it is no longer supported, but has always worked until this past Saturday. It was abandoned several years ago but was kept alive by a single poster whose comments have disappeared. I have the add-on on my computer. I continued to update the continuous Firefox updates.

  • How can I disable the mouse pad? I prefer to use a mouse.

    The cushion is a nuisance especially when I try to type, perhps I catch it with my wrists, I don't know. I prefer to use a mouse.

    The 'quick and dirty' would be to cover the trackpad with something thick enough no pickup "taps" or "gestures". A card cut to tight should be thick enough, but I use a three thicknesses of sheet glued together and cut to tight in the trackpad to open (a corner cut so I can remove it when I have to use the trackpad). I did back in 2008 with an Acer laptop and now do it with my Asus EeePC 900 netbook; If I don't have the mouse with me (or the battery is dead - mouse USB wireless) I just remove the "cap" cardboard if I can use the trackpad.

    In addition, check with a Windows 7 support forum to find out how to disable this "device". This isn't really a problem of Firefox support.

  • How can I disable the JavaScript debugger in my PDF documents?

    Hello

    I do everything I can to disable the debugger JavaScript in my documents created using Adobe Acrobat. Under Acrobat Edit > Preferences, I deselect (uncheck) 'Enable JavaScript debugger after restart Acrobat', 'Activate interactive console' and 'see the console on errors and messages.

    Yet, when I go to advanced > Document processing > JavaScript Debugger, it starts the debugger just!  How can I stop the debugger to start?  Even after the security application strict password to the document where hardly anything other than open it is allowed, Acrobat still allows me to perform advanced options > Document processing > JavaScript debugger and start the debugger.

    I am operating under the assumption that the debugger can allow people to discover my JavaScript source somehow, so I want to keep the debugger cannot be used.  Even if they can't read my source, I don't see any upside to the debugger opens.  How can I disable the debugger to be selectable from the advanced options > processing of the Document?

    Thank you.  I thought it would be a frequently asked question, but I spent a few hours searching without success.

    Dave

    P.S. I use Acrobat 9.1.  I read somewhere that Acrobat X has more ability to disable the debugger.  I saw a mention of "XFA" in this respect, whatever it is.  In any case, if Acrobat X has additional abilities to disable the debugger, let me know.

    As George says there is no way to prevent someone to extract the scripts in a file, if they really want (even if the security is applied to the PDF document, it takes a more circuitous route to get there), but a lot of people will use obfuscation tools to make it a more painful process for the novice. Acrobat does not support encrypted as a result of Creative Suite (JSX - BIN) files, but there are many tools out there that basically take your script, turn it into a complex of references at random clutter and hex strings, then run using a complex function of-jumbler. It is hackable, of course, but unless your code is worth a fortune, it makes it too much like hard work for most of the pirates to bother.

  • Why the fast user switching and the new Windows Search use the Terminal Services?

    Recently, I was struck by a piece of really bad, malicious malware that totally trashed my operating system.  Therefore, as I rebuild my system, I am applying the appropriate safety precautions.  Among the recommendations of Microsoft is to reduce your footprint of security by disabling unnecessary services.  One of these services that I thought I didn't need was Terminal Server services, since it is a way for a person to get to my machine remotely.

    It turns out that, however, other services that I want to use, such as Fast user Switching and window new search utility, depend on the Terminal Server Services.  It makes no sense to me from a safety point of view.  This seems to be a bad design decision, because security trumps utility.

    If Microsoft is listening, I would like to know why you made this decision and you have changed in Windows 7?

    Second, is there a way to always have the Terminal services Server running and at the same time cut access remotely through this service?

    I don't know about the 'new' Windows Search, but what about the fast user switching you ask to run several sessions of Windows when you switch between users (a session for each user connected) and the only way that Windows can do is to act as a quasi Terminal Server, it needs Terminal Server services to run multiple sessions.

  • How can I disable the Agent updates from HP running?

    HP pavilion D4100Y

    Windows XP SP2 or 3 (not sure)

    No error message

    No recent changes

    Problem: The program "HP updates Agent" run frequently and on no particular schedule, certainly not the one I chose.  He takes over my computer for hours and using most of the CPU, fluctuating between 13% and 87% to 1 etc.3% at 6%, etc.. The computer crashes and I can not use it for something else. On the HP updates screen, I put updates on 'NEVER', but that did not work.  The programs always run. In the Windows Task Manager window, the program is called "Agent updates from HP".

    I find nothing on this problem in the base of support.

    How can I disable the Agent updates from HP running?

    Select your Start button, in the search box type 'msconfig' then msconfig.exe under programs.

    Look under the tabs "Services" and "Boot". Uncheck update HP agent, select 'Apply' and close.

  • How can I disable only restful service? On Apex listener

    Hi all:

    For security reasons, I want to turn off the data service based in some of the listener apex server and activate the application only service. How can I do?

    Support gives the solution:

    How to disable the restful services is NOT to configure pools of connections AL and RT in the ADR/Rest Data Services. (APEX Listener).
    Remove or rename the files apex_rt.xml and apex_al.xml available in the configuration (conf) configured against ADR directory used by these bodies / the listener of the APEX.
    This way ADR / the APEX listener will not be able to deliver the REST requests to the database and return 404 to the end user

    Hi Franks,

    This probably should have been posted in the Premiere Elements forum, as this forum is a place of social discussion.

    However, you can simply install Premiere Elements of the new computer and activate it. If not, then you will need to contact Adobe customer service and use the 'chat' option - they will help reset your activation:
