Do I need Fast User Switching running?

OK.. I know what Fast User switching is and what it does...But I am the only user on this PC....
Do I need the service running in the background??

Thanks

 

if you're the only user.. no, turn it off and be happy!

 

According to Blackvipers website

Unless you have many users on a system, you probably do not even need this service to be running. You could benefit, however, greatly if you use this service in conjunction with many users on your local computer to allow switching users without closing all existing applications running under a different account.

Default XP Home: Manual
Default XP Pro: Manual
