+Known Issues

+Windows Vista - The binary installer fails to start
+Firebird as a service at installation time, however,
+the service does start correctly after a reboot. As a
+workaround, you can shift-right click on the Firebird
+control panel applet, choose 'Run as...' and start the
+service from there.
