Since most of us use the internet that connects our ISP through our LAN
card, or basically through a LAN. Wont it affect our connection to the
ISP if we stop the services of Computer Browser and Distributed Link Tracking Client ?
The browser service is used to maintain the list of computers you see in
the Network Neighborhood. If you dont wish to see the list of computers then it is perfectly safe to disable this service. For a regular TCP access such as browsing or P2P clients such as Limewire many of these service are not needed.
Windows being a "EveryOne's" operating system is designed to support everything anyone would ever connect to it. But we all end up turning on all these services with ever using it. This takes a lot of the CPU cycles which you wouldn't want it to.
Distributed Link Tracking Client service sends information of files moving between NTFS drives in a network domain. A single pc connected to internet does not need this service. Infact if speeds up your disk access considerebly as the list of files you copy,move is not being audited and sent across the TCP block. Was it too technical.. let me know can simplify some more
DynaFx.. it is very easy to configure the services in the windows..
