Well it is technically bloat in some respects but, with today's fast storage because of SSDs those things loading during the boot process makes it not nearly what it was in the past. Trying to load 10+ background apps on even the fastest 7200 rpm hard drive can still take quite a bit of time.

With an SSD, even a moderately performing one, the boot time barely gets touched by multiple apps loading simultaneously in such a manner.

I still keep mine pretty lean at boot, I have no background processes that will have an icon in the Tray at all except MSE.

It's summer again, isn't it?
Of course I'm behind a router, of course it's using NAT, but I still want to control which applications are allowed to talk with the internet, and which aren't.
You sound like someone who has disabled his windows firewall because your router has one built-in, why double-dip, right?

It hasn't really changed at all desu. It still does the same thing, they just added some extra stuff like hotkeys to disable it temporarily, dim the screen and a 'movie mode'. Apart from that it's the exact same thing you've already tried.

Not the same person, and I do the same thing as you (disabling firewall), but using it as an interface to enforce networking rules for local executables sounds like a valid reason to use it to me. Nowadays so many programs are "hardcoded" to connect to the internet for retarded reasons, though why anyone would use Windows for anything but games is beyond me.
