If you have successfully set up java as a service then don't use the batch file. Start ant directly from java. From the manual: http://ant.apache.org/manual/running.html#viajava

Personally I use Windows scheduled tasks to run continuous builds - they can be configured to start when computer boots up. The only drawback is that on XP+ computers when I log out all running scheduled tasks are aborted, so I do not logout once I logged onto one of our build computers. - Alexey.
