[Ti] 10.2.4 Update wiped out my Services :=)

[David Remahl]

If you don't want Apple to "mess with your computer" then why do you 
install their system updates?

Are the applications that contain the services stored in the 
/Applications directory or in ~/Applications? They must be in order to 
properly register their services. Services are stored inside of the 
applications, and only specialized applications are stored in 
*/Library/Services.
