Subject: accept() doesn't block while running as NT service

I have a problem with accept() on TCP socket. Al things works well when I
start the program under .\\Administrator credentials, but fails in NT
service.

{
 struct sockaddr_in sa;
 int sa_len = sizeof sa;

  for (;;) {

    t = accept(s,(struct sockaddr *)&sa,&sa_len);

    if (t == -1) continue;

// working with client....
    .......
   }
}

It returns -1 and enters in infinite loop.
I've tried such with UNIX socket and it behaved normally.
Can you explain me why?
