Thanks for getting back to me.  I was unable to reproduce the issue this morning, with or without the "-logverbose 3" setting.  I'll leave the verbose setting in place for a while and see if I am able to reproduce.

After I sent the report last night, I put my laptop in hibernate mode.  When I powered the computer on this morning and resumed operation (about 8 hours after I put it in hibernate mode), the Exit dialog box appeared warning me that exiting Xwin would close my connections.  I went ahead and clicked "Exit" and XWin exited successfully.

Prior to sending my report, I had checked the running processes with Microsoft's "Process Explorer" tool, and saw only one instance of "XWin.exe" running.
