Just a thought but if you were to write a small
windows program that used threads to start each
of the 8 sessions you could control each one seperately?

Ofcourse this would be more for the window guru's among us.
Maybe Matt, Derek, David, PatRat, Al, Robert or
anybody I forgot to mention might know a salution.

Im just now getting into threaded execution myself and see
a whole new deep dark tunnel to bury myself in.
