Re: What is the use of seaport.exe
I also have seen this on my system's background and was in search what is that exactly. Thats really a great info. I heard about this and i got that use system resource for a dubious benefit and Windows Live applications installs a new automatically running process without making the user know about that. So i need and think its better to disable it. Could you help me out in disabling the same ?
Re: What is the use of seaport.exe
Well, you can disable it in just few steps but remember if seaport is disabled, search enhancement features such as search history may not work correctly. If you wish to disable it now, here is the process:-
1. Open your command prompt from the start menu and type services.msc and press Enter.
2. Now scroll down to the seaport in the newly opened window, right click and select Properties.

Thats it..
