    <GITNE> nickm: I have checked running Tor under the NetworkService account.
    Works fine. The problem I had the last time was a missing write permission on
    the log file.
    <GITNE> nickm: So it should probably be safe to change GENSRV_USERACCT to "NT
    AUTHORITY\NetworkService"
    > gitne: was that because the log file was trying to go somewhere it
    shouldn't? or what
    > gitne: also, does that change work for every windows, or only some of them?
    <GITNE> armadev: those three predefinded accounts LocalSystem, LocalService,
    and NetworkService are available since Windows 2000 so Tor should be safe
    with that.
