innd is a news server. I'm betting if you don't know what it is, you don't need to be running it :) You probably have an init script, maybe running '/etc/init.d/innd stop' (or a similar path to the file, depends on your distro). Then, depending on the packaging system your distro uses, you can uninstall the package. If you're using an rpm system, then 'rpm -e innd' might do it, or 'apt-get remove innd'. Depends on your system.
