My app is running as a service. It uses a TIdTCPServer component to 
communicate with clients. As I watch the Processes screen of the Task 
Manager I see the process continually growing as the clients connect and 
disconnect. I'm calling AThread->Connection->Disconnect in the OnExcute 
function and

AThread->StopMode = smTerminate;

AThread->Stop();

TCPServer->ThreadMgr->ReleaseThread(AThread);

TCPServer->ThreadMgr->TerminateThreads(TCPServer->ThreadMgr->ActiveThreads);

in the OnDisconnect function.

Even when I comment out all code in the OnExecute routine other than the 
ATread->Connection->Disconnect the service continues to grow. Googling 
TIdTCPServer seems to indicate that this component leaks memory but I can't 
find a solution.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
