Bug Description
On Vista when we launch Elisa, intially it runs fine and also closes OK but when we close it subsequently many times at some point Elisa does not start , only intial splash screen shows up. This problem is observed on two Vista machines one physical and other VM image.On physical one command (elisa_reboot.exe 1 0) caused it to never start again beyond splash screen ,whereas on VM just using normal closing operation caused it to behave this way.In task manager it was observed that elisa.exe process and one elisa fork process was running.Even if elisa.exe and fork process are killed ,Elisa never starts.
Please find attached logs for both physical Vista and VM image.
Steps to reproduce ;
1.Launch Elisa 0.5.34
2.Close it down 2-3 times either through elisa_reboot or normally
3.Again Launch Elisa
Expected Result : Elisa starts
Current Result : Elisa never goes beyond splash screen , with elisa.exe and one elisa_fork process still alive.

I can't reproduce it here on my super Vista non-virtual machine... Is that happening only on vista for you? I indeed see an error that could be the cause of elisa not starting (in widget.py). But as I say I can't reproduce it so it won't be easy for me to fix :/
