> Hi, i'd like to implement this feature if I knew how Ferro Backup did that. . .

Ferro Backup it is not open source, so there's no way to look at the
code.

But googling around lead to:

	http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.serviceprocess.servicebase.onshutdown.aspx
	http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bclteam/archive/2007/11/01/change-in-system-serviceprocess-shutdown-is-coming-in-3-5-rtm-inbar-gazit.aspx

so seems that effectively now on shutdown windows calls Stop() if
OnShutdown() are not defined.


Still there's all the trouble around shutdown timeout and the visual
feedback to the user.

For the firstm, i suspect that some timeout was added (eg, look at
http://ezinearticles.com/?My-Windows-7-Is-Slow---Learn-Tricks-If-Your-Windows-7-Is-Slow&id=5696200).

For the visual feedback, i don't know if it was related to:

	http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms700677%28VS.85%29.aspx

(but i suspect no).

They put a custom wininit.exe.mui?! Boh...
