I am inexpert,
It is possible start snort in the services (w2k)
I modified register:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Snort\Parameters]
"Application"="C:\\Snort\\bin\\snort.exe"
"AppDirectory"="C:\\Snort\\bin"
"AppParameters"="-c C:\\Snort\\etc\\snort.conf -l C:\\Snort\\log -h 192.168.1.0/24 -s"

Yes, I just did it. Here's how:

From the \bin directory of the Snort intall, enter the following command line:

snort \SERVICE \INSTALL -de -c YourSnortPath\etc\snort.conf -l YourSnortPath\log -i#

Once you've finished this, got to Services and set Snort to run automatically. Restart your machine.
That's it.
