See topic title, if you're running Windows, how many running processes do you currently have? (Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to check)

I've got 21 running processes right now, with foobar2000 and Firefox open.

(Yes I realise this is a pointless topic but I'm bored

Wow, how do you guys have so many running? The most I've ever had was like 29 when I had about 10 different program open...

57... but Konfabulator starts a new process for each widget, so it's not entirely accurate.

38 processes. I cut down a lot of useless services, but I don't know how you run 20. You probably aren't using antivirus.

OK, I guess I have ituneshelper and ipodservice which I probably don't need. My antivirus has 2 processes running. My disk defragger probably has a process.

47, with applications Outlook 2003, 40tude and IE7 open.
Copernic Desktop is adding one, BOClean is adding two, NAV2005 is adding two, iTunes/iPod helper is adding two, 5 (five!) services for my HP usb printer (which isn't plugged in). Six instances of svchost.exe etc.
