Deleting the symlinks should work. Since they only get followed when
runlevels are changed, and that generally occurs at bootup (unless you
change runlevels on your computer frequently), removing the symlinks will
keep the daemons from being started, but you can start them your self with
an /etc/init.d/<daemon> restart.
