Thanks, patch applied.

I think there is an enhancement that should be made however - at
present, when you install the service it actually installs in a state in
which it won't start because no engines have been registered. Perhaps it
should install in 'Disabled' startup mode, which is then set to
'Automatic' when the first engine is registered. When removing the last
engine, it can be set back to 'Disabled'.

Otherwise, on reboot the (potentially scary!) 'A service or device
driver failed at startup - see the system event log for details' error
will likely be displayed.

Thoughts?

Regards, Dave.
