Not a biggie, just can't figure out if this is doc'ed

If I'm running SqueezeCenter as a service, and installing a different
build, I need to
- manually stop the SC service (service mgr or net stop)
- install
- reboot (old service is "scheduled for removal", (set in runonce?),
new service won't install until this is done
- set SqueezeCenter to run as a service

I am running the SC service as user "LocalSystem". To make this work,
I
- configure "SqueezeCenter Startup options" to run as a service, using
the username and password of an existing user
- go into the services manager (start/programs/administrator/services),
and set the service to run as "LocalSystem" - go to the "Logon" tab,
check the "Local System account" radio button (and I've been checking
the "Allow service to interact with desktop" to enable local
management, for the local control app)
- stop / re-start service (or reboot)

Note that running as LocalService is the wrong thing to do if you're
using iTunes integration, but, otherwise, adds a bit of security (and
we windows users can use all the help we can get :-) )
