I do not have any parallel Port devices and so have disabled my PC Parallel
Port via the Bios.
However I get this error in the Event Manager.
Is it possible to disable this Service Starting, and if so which one is it?

If anyone is interested.
This post from Dennis Henderson in grc.techtalk did the trick.
