      I'm running pfsense 2.0-BETA2 on VMware workstation.
      On each pfsense 2.0 update I have another snort service running under the Services Status Tab. Does anyone know how to get rid of those unwanted services showing in that tab? Snort is running fine but I don't need more than one snort instance running, do I? By the way, I'm going to update again tonight so I hope to take five.

            Problem solved! Thanks to pfSense book, page 75 session 4.9 and 4.91. Editing /cf/conf/config.xml I've found those duplicated snort services, deleted the top 4 snort related lines. After rebooting I got just one snort as it should be.
