Thanks WM - that was what I thought ... but wasn't sure.
I just located a pretty neat script that disables unnecessary services using chkconfig. Obviously, anyone reading needs to adjust the list according to their own needs (the author of the script does not use a GUI, so those of you who do, please take care in running it 'as is'; he also disables services which I view as pretty necessary [cron, ssh, sendmail, etc]):

Disabling Services
Like most distributions, FC2 comes with a "kitchen sink" of configured services. I use the following script (adjsvc) and the following data file (services.lst) to shut off those services I don't need.
adjsvc
#!/bin/bash
action=$1
if [ -z "$action" ]; then
action=off
fi
for svc in $(< services.lst); do
echo $svc
chkconfig --level 35 $svc $action
done
services.lst
acpid
anacron
apmd
atd
autofs
cpuspeed
crond
cups
iptables
irqbalance

mdmpd
