Re: [Wrapper-user] Problem in running the Application as a Service

[Leif M. <lei...@ta...>]

Windows Vista Handles Interactive services quite differently than
previous versions of Windows.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms683502.aspx

For security reasons, it no longer allows interactive services to run
along side other non-secure applications as they can access each other
via their windows.   To avoid this, the servicee is forced to display
itself in an isolated desktop.  I believe that is what you are seeing.

I am going to do some more research on this and come up with a
suggested way of handling this.

Cheers,
Leif
