Powershell script to recycle a list of services

This script will stop a set of services in the order given and then start them again in the reverse order.

<#
.Synopsis
    Recycle-Services.ps1 - Stops a list of services and restarts them again

.DESCRIPTION
    This script will stop a given list of services, in the order given,
    then start the services again in the reverse order.

    While stopping the services it will disable them to prevent other automation
    from restarting them prematurely.  When restarting the services it will set
    their startup type to "Automatic".

    Script by Mark Randol - randoltech.blogspot.com

.USAGE
    Change the line that has
        [String[]]$ServiceNames =
    to include whatever services you need restarted. You can add as many as you like
    just be sure to enclose the service names in quotations and seperate them with commas

    Example:
        [String[]]$ServiceNames = "Audiosrv","MyService","SUMDUMSERVICE"
