How can I get a program to stay running on Windows Server 2008 even when I log off?

I am setting up a minecraft server on my dev VPS just for fun. I can RDP in and start up the minecraft server, but as I expected as soon as I log off it kills the server since it is running under my account. How can I make a program keep running even when I log off?

Turn it into a service using the sc resource kit tool. Have a look here.
