This annoyed me as well. I guess it comes from the 'it just works' idea. To 
stop these services starting best is to manually go through your runlevels 
and remove the links to the ones you don't need. Don't forget to check 
in /etc/rcS.d (S for system i guess). 

Unfortunately some services are pulled in by others so if there is something 
extra sch as avahi being started and you don't want it, best idea is to 
uninstall it.
