Summary: Browsing NTPerf counter instances with same name unavailable

Initial Comment:
Trying to create NT Performance counter queries where
there are multiple instances with the same name is not
possible using the Browse Queries dialog when editing
an NT Performance Query for an NT Performance 
collector.

The browse (Add Counters) dialog in M$'s Performance
Monitor tool puts #1, #2, #3, ... on the end of instances
with the same name (on W2K).  This does not happen
in the, very similar, OpenSTA dialog.

This has been reproduced under OpenSTA 1.4.2 with
NT4sp6a and W2Ksp3 (it is not possible to even get 
the "browse" dialog under WinXP, see bug# 730308).
It is believed all previous version of OpenSTA also
exhibit this behaviour.

The workaround is to cut/paste queries from the M$
tool or write them by hand.

The fix for this is simply to set bIncludeInstanceIndex to TRUE
in the PDH_BROWSE_DLG_CONFIG that is passed to Microsoft's
PdhBrowseCounters().  Once this is done the GUI dialog
provides the indexes on all queries with the same name.
