This didn't work. I already had some code in the QueryUnload event to
test what triggered the unload. Because I have no min or max button on
my form, only the X, which actually just minimizes to the systray.
I put an event condition for Windows Shutdown which ended the
application (would not be necessary anyway since the test would let it
close), but anyway this didn't work.

Evidently, XP Mode virtual machine doesn't receive the shutdown
message from the host computer.
