I think we went over this with you already, you don't. Interacting with
a form from a service is a very, very bad idea, as you won't always have an
interactive login in order to display a form with. While you can allow the
service to interact with the desktop, I believe it was pointed out in the
last thread that Vista does not allow this option.

If you want to receive notifications from the service and display them
in a UI, then create a separate exe and have it contact the service through
remoting.

so remoting..with 2 separeted projetcs it's the best solution??

i can use the winform to call a method inside the Service, with the
service permissions??

Yes, you can. You would set the service up as a remoting server, and
then have the windows forms app be a client which makes calls on the methods
you expose on the server.
