<div>
net stop rtvscan<br />
<br />
should do it.<br />

If not, you can find the correct service name in the registry under<br />
<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\<wbr />CurrentCon<wbr />trolSet\Se<wbr />rvices

net stop rtvscan

should do it.

If not, you can find the correct service name in the registry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
