Pre-vista OS the name of the account for sid S-1-5-18 was "NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/163846

Post-XP/2003 (and possibly on XP/2003 with a SP level, I do not recall,) the
name of the same S-1-5-18 sid "<ComputerName>\Local System"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243330

When working directly with the Win32 Services APIs the name used by a
particular OS must be used, or converted to the well known sid.
