windows service

Hi /prog/ rammers,

In your experience, what's the best language+framework for writing a windows service in?

The actual thing it will be doing is simple (making an http request every five minutes so as to keep track of the current external IP address of the network) but all the service-related stuff I have never done before. Any tips?

Why are you retards are getting so worked up over a relatively unpopular programming language? There are much more important global issues of poverty, enslavement, war, hunger and general injustice going on you know.
