I have one user whose computer just got updated to the 7.0 Remote Desktop Connection. Concurrently, she has started having a problem closing the MDI child windows in an old FoxPro application running on the remote server.

We have two different servers, both 2003, running the same application, one locally and one at a remote office. Only the remote office server is giving trouble.
It works fine for me, even when logging into her TS account. No other users have complained.
The other day the same user experienced an error message (path not found for a path showing a localization placeholder) starting the RDC, fixed by reboot. I suspect she may have had RDC running during the 7.0 upgrade.
