When running the scripts inside the debugger, we seem to get oneloggingobject for every time we run the script.  The result is that after running the script five times, the log file contains five copies of every message.  The only way I know to clean this up and get only a single copy of each message is to close PythonWin and restart it.

Same here, can't find anything about log2py.
Anyway it's possible that your pythonwin does not spawn a clean python 
interpreter for every run, keeping the same one.

So you could possibly keep adding log handlers to your loggers because 
they may be static objects (like for the standard logging module).
One solution would be to empty your logger handler list before adding any.

I'm just guessing though, difficult to know without any info on log2py.
