I'm trying to attach to a windows service I am running to debug it however the "Available Processes" list under "Attach to Process" it shows as disabled and won't allow me to attach. What am I missing?

Apparently the dialog doesn't display all services running by default and there is an instance of [MyServiceName].vshost.exe running that had me confused. Simply clicking the filter to display all services revealed my "hidden" service.
