GnuCash.  (I'm on Linux, not MS-Windows -- I don't randomly reboot my Linux 
machines.)

It there aren't either the transfer dialog is trying to run more than one instance (count > 1) or the the handler is already disconnected (count == 0). I don't think connecting or failing to connect to the accessibility bus would affect that, but I don't know what would cause it.

Is it possible that the transfer dialog might have slipped "underneath" the 
account window?  I *think* I have properly *Cancel*ed the (extranious) 
transfer dialogs that popup when I reconcile credit accounts, but on at one 
occasion I missed the cancel button and just "raised" the account window over 
the dialog window (I caught that and retried the Cancel button).  The tranfer 
dialog popups up *both* before the reconcilation dialog and after it (why?).
