+<a href="http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4323062.html">known
problem</a>
+in JDK 1.3 that affects Java applications being run as Windows NT services. The bug
causes the
+service to terminate when the currently logged in user logs out. The simplest way
to work
+around this problem is to use JDK 1.2. If your application requires JDK 1.3
features then you
+may want to look into <a href="http://www.kcmultimedia.com/javaserv/">javaserv</a>
or
+<a href="http://www.alexandriasc.com/software/JavaService/">JavaService</a>. Users
