How can I stop applications and services from running?

As I can't uninstall certain programs that come with a phone (My case HTC Desire (not rooted)) how can I prevent certain apps from launching or trying to sync? And hide them? Or "Auto-Kill" kill them

For example

youtube app
faceboook app
stocks (including the sync feature)
twitter (including the sync feature)

Topic bloatware android

For apps that sync, any app with an ounce of politeness will have any entry on the Accounts & Sync page in Settings where you can disable syncing. This is certainly true of the official Facebook and Twitter apps.

1) Consider rooting your device, it's really easy now with the Unrevoked package

2) Settings -> accounts & sync. Here you can set options around what does it doesn't auto sync

There is also an app called startup cleaner. I found it useful in preventing some apps from starting.
