    Probably because you need to Abort it first:

    An object in the Faulted state is not
    closed and may be holding resources.
    The Abort method should be used to
    close an object that has faulted. If
    Close is called on an object in the
    Faulted state, a
    CommunicationObjectFaultedException is
    thrown because the object cannot be
    gracefully closed.

    From ClientBase.Dispose doco:

    Closes the client object.

    You are probably getting CommunicationObjectFaultedException because you are calling Dispose (which calls Close) before aborting. Abort, then Dispose and you should be OK.
