Purpose: NMSSvc.exe - On Windows 2000/XP, this provides Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support for some Intel network cards. If you are not using your computer in a managed environment (that is, no IT department or network manager) then it is very unlikely that SNMP is being used and this service can be set to Manual in Administrative Tools | Services.

nmssvc.exe uses excessive system and memory resources with no corresponding benefit. Applications such as these should be disabled to improve overall system performance.
