Bash process hangs around forever after ssh disconnect

I'm seeing this on several systems...

I'm logging in to a W2k server via cygwin sshd and using Putty as my terminal 
emulator. If my ssh connection gets dropped for any reason the bash.exe 
process on the host just stays there forever. Also, anything I was running in 
bash (e.g. vim) will stay there forever. I'm having to use taskman to clean 
this up periodically.

Anything that can be done about this?

Thanks,
