Neat

Nice work!

I'm not sure if the automatic restart will work if there is a Windows dialogue box popping up (like this one), but I'll try the guardian script.

It wont. You need to use a program to get around those

Reading though the srcds.com forums I guess AutoIt, ServerChecker or running the srcds.exe as service would work. A known commercial solution for the service thing is FireDaemon, but afair there's a Windows command which can run programs as service as well.

FireDaemon would only be needed if you are running it on Windows XP. If you are running it on one of the server versions (2003, Home, 200

then you can just add it as a service yourself.
