    Do a search for "semi-clean install" or removing bloatware. There are dozens of threads regarding this subject. Be patient, there's a lot of bloatware to remove... :p

    i would do a completely fresh install - it makes a world of difference, taking off all that crap isn't enough - although it is a huge amount of stuff
