Uninstall Terminal Services

While tinkering I inadvertently installes Microsoft Terminal Services. As far as I can tell I do not need it but worry that it is consuming system resources. I've tried to uninstall it with no success.

How do I uninstall Terminal Services on this WinXP-Pro SP2 Dimension 4600.

    Go to Add/Remove Programs and on the left hand side of the applet, look for Add/Remove Windows Components.  It hsould be in there, if not, do a System Restore to a ppoint before TS got installed.  By the way, TS is no longer needed for much of anything as Remote Desktop can perform the Same Services.

    Should note that I did this about a year ago and a lot has happened since.

    Terminial Services is not on the Add/Remove menu.

    As to restoring to a prior setting I am afraid of that since it was so long ago and I have probably 100 or more restore points already in place.

    I need a lower level solution.

    You remember something you installed a year ago??  If it ain't broke and causing problems, forget it.
