When I look at the task manager, I understand the "Applications" shows what is running, but is the "Processes" supposed to show an entire menu of exe. applications or should they be closed (end process)? Would it be harmful to close (end) them?

Applications are the one launched by you. Processes show all processes running on your systems, ie. OS processes, your processes, etc..
Most of the time, if you don't know what to kill, I'd recommend not too. Some processes won't even allow you kill it. Some has to always run since they are the OS processes and it might reboot your system if you kill it.

ok when it comes to the task manager you can end task all of the ones that say your name or the use profile on the xp box you can also use the start run and type msconfig and go to the last tap being startup and uncheck every thing and your pc will be faster and use spybot and window washer every day
