1. Computer Browser -- Disable if your not on a network ie if you have a stand alone pc
2. DHCP Client - Only if you have a static IP address, if you dont know what that is, leave it enabled.
3. Distributed Link Tracking Client - If your not on a network, disable it.
4. Error Reporting Service - Disable this, 100% not needed
5. Fast User Switching Compatibility - only needed if you use the "switch user" funtion, in other words to switch between logins, set to disabled if you dont need it
6. Help and Support - Disable, help and support is useless anyway. in all the years ive used windows its never once been of any help, nor has it ever supported me.
7. IPSEC Services - used for encrypting data transfer across a network or subnet(s), not really something a typical home user has use for. set it to manual if you are unsure, but mine is set to disabled. its quite safe to do so.
8. Java Quick Starter - personally i would disable it as i have never had any use for java. do you use java? even so, this service is only to speed up the initialisation of java applets, unless you use java applets all the time and it would make a difference, i would disable it. it also uses 20mb of ram + whatever is running in virtual memory.
see: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/otherFeatures/jqs.html
9. Network Location Awareness (NLA) - only needed if you are using windows firewall or if you are connecting to the internet through another computer, or vice versa. also if you are connecting to multiple networks. i would set it to manual but it looks to be one of those services that continue to run when set to manual. probably because of windows firewall.
10. Print Spooler - do you have a printer?
11. Protected Storage - used for securely storing passwords in memory for the "auto complete" function when browsing the web or using applications, can be useful. up to you. i use mine.
12. Remote Access Connection Manager - if you have a router, like me, you dont need this, only if you connect directly to the internet this is sometimes needed, or if you connect to the internet through another computer (ICS) mine is disabled, set it to manual if that is more comfortable.
13. Server Service - for filesharing and network printers. useless if you dont have a network.
14. Shell Hardware Detection - used to detect new hardware such as usb devices etc and used with the autoplay feature. most of the time when you connect new hardware you have software to go with it, so all round pretty pointless. it can also be exploited in an privilege escalation attack. set it to manual and take note of this particular service, if you find symptoms that match what it is used for, set it back to automatic.
15. SSDP Discovery Service - useless wiothout a network, probably useless with one too. the service "Universal Plug and Play Device Host" depends on this, but you can disable that too. you need this service for ICS, connecting to the internet through another computer, unless you do that then their is not point.
16. TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper disabled! also disable netbios:
http://www.petri.co.il/disable_netbios_in_w2k_xp_2003.htm
17. Telephony - manual.
18. Terminal Services - the following services make use of this, Remote Desktop (including RD for Administrators), Fast User Switching, Remote Assistance, and Terminal Server. remeber "fast user switching"? also if you are expeting remote assistance from anyone you will need this running, the others you wont need to worry about. also it displays usernames next to running processes in task manager, so if you dont have a need for any of these set it to manual, however i use mine for fast user switching and usernames in taskmanager.
19. Themes - i use mine, for xp themes.
20. Viewpoint Manager Service - no idea what it is, apparently comes bundled with AOL software and some other stuff, viewpoint has several applications, media player, toolbar etc. its used for graphical programs of somesort, its described as bloatware, in other words software that takes up resources. disable it because there is no need for a service for it.
some people say its spyware, which im not sure it is.
some info on it:

21. WebClient - has apparently no use, set it to manual and stop the service.
22. Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) - used for cameras and scanners. set to manual, or leave it as automatic if you think you will need it.
23. Wireless Zero Configuration - needed for wireless configuration. do you use wireless? disable and take note for future reference.
24. Workstation only really needed on a domain based network, set it to manual.
25. reboot your pc. and see if everything works, ie youc an connect to the internet etc.
26. Remote Access Connection Manager - i left this until last because it makes no sense. the description is "creates a network connection" i have a small single pc network at home, where i connect to my router, i have this service disabled and it does not affect me in any way, rather pointless.
http://www.blackviper.com/WIN2K/win2kservice411.htm#Remote_Access_Connection_Manager
that description say sif you use a router there is no need, i guess its only needed for direct connection to a larger network such as the internet. i donno beyond me. if you have a router/gateway then you dont need it.
