<DIV><SPAN class=273325814-06042005><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Have
you tried changing the 'Display' name in services. If this is a Win2k or higher
you can do this by right clicking the service, select properties and change the
Display name. Not sure if this will work, but the command line 'net stop' and
'net start' will use the display name and that should only affect what is seen
in services.msc, not what your program sees.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
