Hi,

I want to _disable_ the following services for good - they should never 
activate again:

                Bonobo Activation FrameWork
                SSH Agent
                GNome KeyRing Daemon
                Mapping Daemon


I just do _not_ want to have additional load on my system, which is just 
1.7GHz Celeron, as I want to use the yet-to-be-freed resources for tasks 
that add _more_ value to my work.  The services mentioned above keep 
starting again and again no matter how many times you "End" them using 
System Monitor.  I haven't gone into the detail of their inner workings 
but suspect very rightly that Bonobo is Linux equivalent of the 
Microsoft's ActiveX and any CORBA object on my system can be activated 
remotely by anyone.  Same goes with SSH:  it can be used to remotely 
connect to my system without using a password as the brief description 
of its web page suggests.

I would be very thankful if you guys could tell me a way to disable 
these services once and for all - so that they don't start again ever.  
How I can uninstall/remove them from my system?

Thanks in advance,

Asif
