Message Queues for Windows

What are the possible message queue services that are available for the .NET stack on Windows?

My use-case is to have worker services running on one or more machines that process jobs put into a queue by the web server to handle background processing.

I know MSMQ comes with Windows. What about RabbitMQ or ZeroMQ?

Are these stable and do they work reasonably well on Windows?

RabbitMQ has Windows support, just check out the Rabbit download page. That said, so long as a .net client is available then you can host the queue on any supported platform and still consume in .net

I can't speak for RabbitMQ, but ZeroMQ has stable windows support in the native source, and the same guy who wrote the python bindings (which I use) wrote the .NET bindings: http://www.zeromq.org/bindings:clr

So, I would say ZeroMQ is trustworthy.
