Sweet, I figured it out. There's more than one registry entry to kill the Push Internet service, and you can't stop the process manually via dotFred's Task Manager - Services tab (even if it says it's Off under the Internet->Data Settings->Push Internet line, the service remains running).

Anyways, I threw together a quick cab (uninstallable) for this. You'll have to reboot after installing the cab. Upon reboot, Opera9.exe should still be running, but instead of the 2.5MB it took up before, it'll only take up ~5kb now. It's also fully killable, so once you end the process with dotFred's Task Manager, it'll be gone.

[Note: This was actually the cause of my TTS engine on iGO8 to not work. After I managed to kill off the Opera9.exe process, my TTS engine works again]


Edit: modified the cab to remove the 5kb Opera9.exe Autostart Bootlauncher process too, as even that 5kb process killed my TTS...oddly.
