Thomas,

I have Cced the backhand-users list so that others may benefit and/or
provide insight.

Try removing this line. (ClearModuleList). I have problems with that.

The byRandom and the byBusyChildren is effectively ignoring the
byRandom. You should either drop byRandom or add the byLogWindow like
you did below.

I have had this problem before as well, but could track it down.
Removing the "ClearModuleList" solves it for me.

If anyone has a deeper insight into why this problem occurs, I am all
ears.
