I am also using the JavaService. It was easy to configure and has been
very stable. No problems at all.
Also, the way it solves the logout problem is by intercepting the
Windows logoff message so you don't have to use the 1.3.1 jvm's -Xrs
parameter. If you use the -Xrs parameter, you loose the ability to
automatically run a shutdown hook. I haven't tested it, but I belive
JavaService will still pass the Shutdown message to the jvm, so the
shutdown hooks should run.
