[Peter Laursen <peter_laursen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

But I do not think "NT Authority\Network Service is localized" (it only is
in Czech and other tonguebreaking languages and also not from Vista onwards
as far as I remember. In Vista/2008/7 localization only applies to GUI and
not command syntax)

Also isn't 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM' what user account MySQL normally uses?  But
using \Network Service may be an improvement .. I remember we had some
discussions. :-)

If you need more information from my system just ask for a registry key dump
or the output from some specific command.
