Ok thank, that's working perfectly.
I also tried Michael Loritsch and Elbert Lev suggestion(win32service), 
but that failed for some module, telling 'The specified service does not 
exist as an installed service.'.
But win32serviceutil work perfectly. It is only undocument in the 
pywin32 documentation but I think I'll have to search on google for 
further information.

Thank you
