Just to update this, here is a very helpful email I got from Jacob - THANKS Jacob, worked a treat ;)
Hi Karl, Found your question on OzTFS and didn't really know how to reply to the mailing list. Anyways, I experienced the same problem as you and I found out that the trial somehow is connected to the user. If I start the service as a new user (In something like services -> Visual Test Load Agent -> Properties -> Log on as) you should be able to start it. However, it expires after a while, and then you have to start it with a new user. I suspect it has something to do with how many test runs you can do with the same user but I haven't been able to find any officia limitations other than the 90 days trial. Hope this helps.
