How to disable automatic disk defragment

[JL]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I found many times that My PC (XP)'s hard disk lights are on all the time.
From task manager I found sth like "dfrgntfs.exe"(My spell may not be
accurate) is running. It sounds like disk defragment. But no where can I
find the it's been scheduled. Could you tell me how to disable it? I only
want to run it when I want to. Thanks.
