Thanks Ed, that's above and beyond. Can I ask if under the "Show qBT in
notification area" you had both boxes ticked? There's one for
"Minimize" and one for "Close". I find that unticking the Close one is
what seems to work. I presume the logic is that closing to the
notification area means leaving the program running, which is correct,
but now also means "prevent logout", which it never used to mean. It's
a change of behaviour. The old line about "bugs redefined as features"
comes to mind.

Thanks again.
