If you really ment to remove the service (not just stop it, but make it no
longer listed in services applet) stop the service and use regedit (type it
in run window, Start > Run or Winkey-R) to remove the service. Search for
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\<squeak_service_name>
and delete the whole thing up. Then reboot.

: Just open the Services applet in the Control Panel, select the running
: service, and click on Stop. You can also use the command line functions:
: "net stop <service_name>" (with the corresponding "net start
: <service_name>", "net pause <service_name>", and "net continue
: <service_name>").
