Start a Command Prompt (Start->Run, type 'cmd', press enter).
Go to the Xitami directory:

C:\>_
C:\>cd progra~1\xitami

C:\PROGRA~1\Xitami>_

Now, launch Xitami and tell it to remove itself as a service:

C:\PROGRA~1\Xitami>xiwinnt -uninstall
Xitami web server v2.4d9 (c) 1991-99 iMatix

xiwinnt: stopping service 'Xitami'... Ok
xiwinnt: service 'Xitami' removed

C:\PROGRA~1\Xitami>_

That's it!

Hope this helps!
