Detecting if a remoted object really exists

Hi,

is there a chance to find out if a proxy to a remote object is dead without
calling a method on the proxy? I have written a frontend for a service, the
service itself is the remote object. When I first start my frontend
everything works as expected, the call to Activator.GetObject() returns
null. But when I start the service and the stop it again calling
Activator.GetObject() returns me a TransparentProxy. Any ideas?

Regards,
Michael
