Well no, that would be a license violation.

Note that the primary file you needed you didn't mention, it is srvany, it
is the one doing the real work. Instsrv and sc really aren't doing much and
actually aren't needed at all if you know what you are doing. However that
KB is dead without srvany.

You can check out ftp.microsoft.com/reskit to see if you can find what you
need in the free downloads.


Note that you need to be careful with crutching apps to run as services.
Using this doesn't mean you have a good stable service. You will often run
into bad things. Also some apps just can't be crutched this way. I would be
especially careful of any apps set up to run this way that maintain disk
files and such as you can easily get corruption when you shut the service
down as it isn't normally a graceful shutdown, the crutch app basically
blows the legs out from under the process. I recall one company that
contacted me about this once because I have been rather vocal in the
newsgroups about not doing this because they had an app that they had used
this way for some 2-3 years. They finally threw snake eyes when shutting it
down one time and lost some very serious data that had legal implications
and were looking for a way out. My response was they were SOL.

Proper well behaving services are written specifically to be services.
