    There is a nice guide for a VAIO_F11 by one of our members that (near the end) tells you about most of the programs if they are in his opinion usefull or not.
    Vaio_F_Series Windows 7 64-bit Clean Install Using OEM Recovery Discs
    Before removing any programs first create the recovery discs and see for yourself maybe you like the program anyway.
    Just uninstalling everything is not a good idea... you can end up with a non functioning laptop.
