Perhaps not (what's a "stealthed OS"???)

A quick search on EventID.net reveals:
http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=682&eventno=1802&source=Security&phase=1

On TechNet:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/guidance/secmod144.mspx

Scroll down to "Logon Events".

See also: "...Event ID 682 indicates when a connection to a previously disconnected session has occurred."

Hope that helps,
