How do I disable this process or stop it from executing. I do not use IE.

The other thing you have to watch out for is Windows Media Player. It can keep launching mobsync to try to index all the media files on your system. I have an automatic app killer just to kill media player, IE, and mobsync. I disabled all the media center library stuff and don't have media sharing enabled on my Lan, but you never know when any of these 3 will try to pop up without warning. My HD is nice and quiet now.

what's the app?

It's not a freebie anymore. Looks like it's gone ad-supported. But if you insist it's Aiglon Process Killer. Here's a page with a bunch, but since I got Aiglon free at the time and it's been working for me, I haven't tested out other ones:

edit: btw on W7 I don't feel the need to run it. Guess I was able to actually turn all the stuff off, including uninstalling IE 8. Just Vista is stubborn about running your HD. Although SP1 is way better than pre SP version. Took me like 6 months to get that the way I wanted it.

Are you talking about Kind of Blue?
That's the one a lot of people start with, when picking up Miles Davis. But he had various periods and styles. In fact there was a story about Miles being invited to dinner at the White House... don't remember which President.. but this high society broad didn't have a clue who he was.. so she asks "and what did you do to get invited to the White House?" and Miles says "I changed Music 5 or 6 times."
