It seems that I have Integration Services running under Network Service 
on my box. I think I had problems with getting SSIS to start on when 
I booted the machine, this was also true for the Database Engine.

I believe I resolved this issue when I finally learned to spell to 
ServicesPipeTimeout. (That's a registry key.)

But I don't use SSIS much at all, since I don't know it.
