Monitoring Windows Services

Because it's so damn hard to share files between two Windows PCs that aren't on the same domain I installed an FTP server. But I don't always want the thing running. So, I turned it off, but wanted to double check that the service was *actually* disabled. Services don't show up in Task Manager, and they're hidden from view.

To monitor which service processes are running on your machine: start->Run->msconfig
