use the following:

'*****
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

Set colRunningServices = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_Service where name='eventlog'")

For Each objService in colRunningServices
Wscript.Echo objService.DisplayName & VbTab & objService.State
Next
