DS18x Windows Native Service
This program is a native Windows Service and it logs temperature
measurements from the 1-Wire temperature sensors. Service can run
without user logged in. Program can broadcast measurements to the
local area network using so called mailslot's and so temperature
readings can be seen from the other workstations.
