We have an application that can also be a COM server. The way it is
coded means that it must be one or the other. IOW if someone has
launched the application independantly it should be able to tell any
potential clients to get lost and start another copy.

How do we go about doing this?

Should we remove the static initialisation of the TComServer object and
do that conditionally or is there a method we can call to switch the
server off?
