Short answer:  
  
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\  
  
(which also includes other than "services")  
  
There is more to it and without knowing why you asked I can't say  
  
much more that would be useful.  Manual editing there is not  
  
recommended.  When you Google also search on "service control  
  
manager" and "sc.exe".

See the Start Value Name at tip 324 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsifaq.com  
  
Generally, services that have a Start value of 2 start, but a service can start another service that has a  
  
start value of 3.

It's a question of un-installing services correctly, rather than  
  
the of just deleting a key(s).  
  
msconfig is *not* a service management tool, despite the fact that  
  
it offers to deal with services.  Better to use the Services.msc  
  
console or CLI tools like sc.exe  If you do not have sc.exe get  
  
PSSERVICE.EXE from Sysinternals (free, recommended).  
  
Try services.msc, sc.exe, psservice.exe all of which can list the  
  
servicename (what you wanted) and the displayname.  
  
If you have Disabled the service for Norton Protect you are done.  
  
No need to un-install it.  I would expect that only during a  
  
Symantec upgrade might that setting be changed.  But check it a few  
  
times.  After a reboot for example, in case some other part of the  
  
Symantec software tries to enable it.  
  
Did that fix the journaling issues?

There is no such list stored in the registry.  Barring startup  
  
errors, those sevices listed as auto-start are started and those  
  
listed as demand-start (manual) may be started as needed.  
  
"Disabled" is never started.  
  
Using a common service,  
  
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog  
  
The   Start  data is 2 (dec.) meaning automatic.  
  
3=Demand (manual)  
  
4=Disabled  
  
I should have mentioned in other post to check the Dependencies tab  
  
in services.msc or the CLI tools for this "Norton Protect" service.

Where in the Registry do I find the list of Services that show up  
  
under Control Panel Services?

Yep, that's it. I don't understand why I keep forgetting it. I know  
  
where the other startups are.  
  
I am not afraid to hack the Registry - I have been doing it for years.  
  
I always make a clone backup first.  
  
I have msconfig. But I want to remove the Registry entry that  
  
implements Norton Protect. I have it disabled for now, but I want that  
  
sucker out of there for good.  
  
sc.exe is part of Win2K. The problem is there is an implicit Catch-22.  
  
You must know the service name as it appears in the Registry which is  
  
not necessarily the same as seen in the Control Panel Services.  
  
Therefore you have to find it in the Registry first.

I won't know for a couple of days - a week would be best.  
  
I only reboot the computer when I want to make a clone copy, usually  
  
in the morning and whenever I plan to do something that could cause a  
  
problem, like hack the Registry or install some new software. I have  
  
Kingwin KF-23 removable drive bays so reverting back after a screwup  
  
is very easy - much easier than wasting a day trying to fix the  
  
screwup.  
  
I could reboot now but once is not enough. I need about 1 week's worth  
  
of reboots to make sure. I put it on my calendar to report back in 1  
  
week from this morning so I will let you all know how things turned  
  
out. Of course, if something happens sooner, I will be back then. But  
  
I think I have it under control now.

I got all the PsTools. Pretty cool stuff.  
  
I must have deleted the service in the Registry because it is no
