Load ActiveSync on Demand

[brianafischer]

I rarely use ActiveSync on my work laptop and would like to load it "on demand". After installing, I noticed that there are two services constantly running:

1. ActiveSync RAPI Manager (C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\rapimgr.exe), 5.5MB

2. ActiveSync Connection Manager (C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\wcescomm.exe), 5.1MB

I can't justify wasting 10.6MB of RAM for an application I use once or twice a month.

I have tried removing these services from the following locations:

HKCU: H/PC Connection Agent ("C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\wcescomm.exe")

However, These processes always seem to start up?

Does anyone know how to load this on demand or what is causing ActiveSync to start up?
