Jerad,

We have the NSClient++ running on our Windows servers and the following 
service check is an example of how we are monitoring services from the nagios 
server:

define service{
     use                   generic-service
     host_name             email server
     service_description   explorer
     check_command         check_nt!PROCSTATE!-d SHOWALL -l explorer.exe
}

It is actually in one of the sample config files, you should just have to tell 
it what process you want to watch.
