Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

This is one of the worst examples of code I have come across. Error after error after error. You need to test this out to see just how buggy it is, then fix it.

Separate feedback from UUF:

At this step: 'In the Toolbox window, expand Components, and then drag the EventLog component to the Service1.cs [Design] or Service1.vb [Design] designer.' the Toolbox is empty.
