OK, as an IT guy in my small company I am really behind the times....
I needed to install XP on a machine with SATA RAID and no floppy drive.
I've ran across slipstreaming before, but dismissed it because of the
learning curve that I assumed I would have to go through.
Then I hit nliteos.com
While not perfect, I really was slick.
I was able to add SP3, IE7, and WMP11 to the install disk without having
to do a separate install later - along with all of the junk that comes
with it.
I added my SATA drivers along with some other goodies.
I removed things I don't use or care for - ie... Indexing service
It is no longer there at all - the files are gone.
Then burned about 6 CDR coasters that didn't work.
XP install kept complaining that it could find a file during install.
Then read to try a DVD - worked beautifully.
I need to use this at work. This will save at least an hour on a build
because I don't have to wait for Windows updates to download and then
install junk.

Don't you mean "remove from" rather than "add to"?

no I mean add to
While I am not the biggest fan of those 'features' I find that having
them around does make it easier to do some things.
And yes, you can remove most of those components that you never use....
outlook express anyone
