[stunnel-users] No Taskbar Icon

Wed Sep 24 19:34:11 CEST 2014

If you select "allow to interact with desktop" an error will be 
generated in the event log.  Microsoft has removed the ability for 
services to interact with the Desktop.  Please see:

"If you allow the service to interact with the desktop, any information 
that the service displays on the desktop will also be displayed on an 
interactive user's desktop. A malicious user could then take control of 
the service or attack it from the interactive desktop. In Windows Vista 
and Windows Server 2008, support for interactive services has been 
removed to mitigate this security risk;"
