Off the top of my head (I always look for the simple solution first although this one may be brutal), what about: NET STOP TerminalService NET START TerminalService (not sure that's the actual correct name of the service). Or... look at the process list before you manually close the connections and watch for processes that disappear. Now write a script to kill such processes. You may need to google for "windows process kill" to download a program to do that, as Windows (last time I looked) was fairly crippled in this regard.
