Purely Internet usage computer

I'm trying to make it so my computer is purely for internet usage to check my social networks, and play Maplestory. I disabled all my services, then realized I couldn't connect to the internet so I went through the Services in MSConfig and I have no idea what I need to check for just having internet privileges. Could you help please?
I have:
Windows 7
Service Pack 1
HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2670QM CPU @ 2.20GHz
6.00 GB RAM
64 bit.

Screenshots of my Services:

1. restart computer
2. start all services
3. Open up notepad
4. type in anything
5. If you're the only user on your computer: hit log out otherwise hit shutdown
6. When it asks if you want to save whatever is on notepad click cancel
7. Cancels shutdown/logout process
8. Closes unnecessary processes.
(at least this worked on windows xp, not sure about 7/8)

Could I PM them to you? Like if you saw them, would you most likely know what to do?
