OK Frank, I now follow what you meant.  Further investigation reveals that
you are correct, it is a reference count problem.  The topology port has an
extra reference count to it, and when I step through the release member it
is not being deleted due to this extra reference (hence all the leaks).

I will post more details shortly.  I'm still baffled why this should occur
on Win2k SP4 and not on WinXP SP1, but maybe it will become clearer shortly.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction,

Philip Lukidis
