Under NT, services run under a dedicated window station separate from the interactive
window station. It is not possible for them to create windows, as there is no display or
user input associated with this windows station, they can however have a console
Actually, I think the user WILL see them if she presses "ctrl-alt-del". The GINA login window is one such window opened by a service, as well as that thing that pops up only when you press ctrl+alt+del.I don't think that it is correct to say that services cannot cerate windows. From what I remember from the time I wrote a service and how I read the information at the URLs you provided, what happens is that a service can create windows but the user won't see them, and the user won't be able to send input of click on them.
I hope this helps.
