rxvt fails to kill the shell when you close your rxvt window via the X 
(Close) button. This can be easily verified by starting a cmd, setting 
SHELL (e.g. set SHELL=bash) then executing rxvt. Start Task Manager and 
you'll see a bash process running. Now close the rxvt window using the X 
(Close) button. Rxvt will go away. But bash will remain. And if you 
attempt a shutdown of your Windows system you will get prompted to kill 
these processes.

(Not sure if this is the right place to post this).
