On my WinXP Pro SP1 system while using the built in Administrator
account, if I check the "Event Viewer" and look at the Application
Log, I see warning messages stating:

"Windows saved user Xyz\Administrator registry while an application or
service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used
by the user's registry has not been freed. Ther registry will be
unloaded when it is no longer in use.

This is often caused by services running as user account, try
configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or NetWork
service account."

I have configured ALL services to run as LocalService, but these
warning messages do not go away.

Any ideas as to what to do to correct the situatrion these warning
messages point to ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Matt
