Actually, I've now found out that the problem is not this warning, but 
is the ERROR part only.

 the..

 Nov 10 10:17:10.093 [Error] Error from libevent: event.c:1413: 
Assertion base failed in event_base_get_method

part.

The warning goes away when I correct the localnet address of the hidden 
service.

So this is still a problem, the libvent event failure c:1413.

So is Tor supporting win2k still or not and is there a fix or work 
around to this problem?
