How to stop searchprotocolhost running?

Hi these files running in the background are driving me nuts:

searchfilterhost.exe
searchprotocolhost.exe
searchindexer.exe

How can I easily disable them and stop them from running in the
background? - I have tried end tasking them but they carry on my hard disk
is clattering away whilst these are running.
Thanks.

Andy.

Thanks for the link worked a treat I now have a quieter and better running
computer - that was a memory hog and I don't mind having slow searches.

Thanx "Ronny", that is the first time an MVP posted a direct, helpfu
solution to a problem.

All the techs at MSDN and TechNet seem to not want to post a direc
solution to problems like this, seems to be the MS policy: "Jag Off th
users and never give them the real easy answer"

I was reading about SearchFilterHost eating up to 90% of resources, an
not ONE MVP posted this Real Easy Solution.. So I X-posted these
topics to there.

Seems that solutions cannot be directly posted there: "Ronny" had t
post a LINK to the solutuon HERE. Tell me it ain't so?

This is about the same thing as Bill Gates looking for his "Movi
Maker" Program download using the search engine at MS Downloads->Usin
the Links provided by MS, he found:

1) Not ONE link to the installer package he needed
2) A series of links that installed about 30 MG of crap on to his P
which he dd not need and caused his PC to get screwed up
3) Not ONE link to any Actual usable installers.

So, I am not suprised by any of this, it seems to be Standard O
Procedure for MS Reps to never give solutions in MS Tech BBSs
