bug in Screen Saver sample in Visual Studio 6.0

I'm trying to fix a bug in the Screen Saver sample in the Visual
Studio 6.0 suite. The following is a brief description of the bug:

When the program terminates CDrawWnd remains open. There remains
an empty window box in the task bar, for every instance of the terminated
program. The OnDestroy event occurs, even though the window doesn't
actually get destroyed. I have tried every way I can think of to
destroy the window manually, but to no avail.

Is there some special way to terminate a screen saver application that
I need to take into consideration?

Please try to e-mail me your replies, if you can.

Thanks,
Mikko Antero Gustafsson

There isn't anything related to C++ in this question.

Try asking in a relevant group in the microsoft.public.* branch.
