Silverlight Browser Close Event

Question
When the user closes the browser that hosts my Silverlight 2 Application I need to call a web service that would log the user out. I am aware of the Application_Exit event, however when I call my service in that event nothing happens. I presume that the connection to my service is already closed by then.
Is there another event that I should use?
Please help.
Solution
Don't do it. Calling a service at application exit is not supported by Silverlight. You need the service to clean itself up, possibly with the application telling the service every few minutes/hours as appropriate tto delay the cleanup. Link to Silverlight Forums and the same question
