I ahev a .reg file that I run after I have installed windows to disable alot fo Windows Xp's services and I us this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Alerter]
"Start"=dword:00000004

As you can see that would disable the "Alerter" service. Now what I am asking is what key is teh Security Center in so I can disable it through the reg file?

FYI in the future you can find the service name for any of your services by opening up the services msc and viewing the properties for that service. The service's name is the first item on the general tab.

Not always the case, since many services run under svchost.exe. What I did to find it was do a search in HKLM\SYSTEM\CCS\Services for the description of the security center service.
