1. I want to keep my com exe (just one ATL COM object - free threaded
- dual interface) running even after all the clients have quit. But I
don't want to make it a service.

Call _Module.Lock() to keep yourself alive. Call Unlock() when you
finally decide it's time to terminate.

2. When the exe shuts down, I want to save some internal data (in
fact, an stl list) onto the disk so that it can be read when next
time the exe starts up

Override PostMessageLoop in your CAtlExeModule-derived class.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
