The standard Windows monitoring addons (nsclient, nsclient++, others)
have the ability to check the running state of specific services. Your
request doesn't seem special in that regard. If you're monitoring
anything local about a windows machine now (disk, memory, cpu, etc),
chances are you're already using something that supports it.
