Note that setting "Allow service to interact with desktop" will
*not* allow you to see the remote applications windows on your local
maschine. It just says, the windows will pop up in front of what
ever is on the screen of the remote maschine, regardless who is
currently logged in to that maschine (logged in using "traditional"
windows method, e.g. local screen and keyboard).
If someone is localy working on your remote maschine, you may get
strange results, mixing that users actions with your recorded
macros. Bad idea.
