Version 1.7.0.0 ready for prime time!

Lots of evening and weekends spent on getting more stuff in. Most of the changes are internal but I did add a nice visual admin site viewer using jQuery plugins.

After battling windows service code I finally got it working well enough that I feel comfortable using it instead of the console mode. It did take a while to figure out all the little kinks that arise when writing services and having to deal with Microsoft's security system (it's like trying to play Spelunker, read the Gameplay section).

I also decided to organize the entire website into the _website folder which makes getting up and running trivial (not that it was hard before, just now everything is under one folder and you can switch website roots easily which not having to copy config or resources). Something that people that run multiple instances have requested.
