how to disable intellisense

For those few folks who work with huge source code more than 500 000 line of code and have big project you might want to disable intellisense. Why because
If I try to debug flash while intellisense process is running in the background, it crashes Visual Studio 2005....which force me to wait for intellisense to be complete when i launch my project or anytime intellisense has decided to start processing things again...
Not sure what is the advantage of intellisense... but for those who want to disable it :

In VS 2005 it can be done by renaming or deleting the following file:
\VC\vcpackages\feacp.dll

Or

You can also control IntelliSense through macros, allowing you to enable/disable IntelliSense without restarting VS or renaming files. See this blog article for the macro details: http://blogs.msdn.com/vcblog/archive/2007/11/19/controlling-intellisense-through-macros.aspx
