From: Reddzz on
I have a question about programs staying in the Task Manager Processes after
they have been closed out.

I know that I can right click and end processes manually and have as few
running as possible during startup via MSCONFIG.

The scenario I'm referring to is for example: I open Internet Explorer,
surf the web, & close out via the X. The iexplore.exe keeps running (not
using CPU resources just memory) after it has been closed out. The same
thing happens when I used Kodak Easy Share. Does anyone know how to stop the
programs when they have been closed out? Some programs are completely
removed from the Task Manager Processes when I end them and others are not.
Is this a registry setup item?

Thanks in advance.

I believe you are a bit confused. When you start Internet Explorer it is
loaded into memory. Merely stopping it does NOT
unload it from memory.

IE promptly disappears from task manager here when I close it ...

Maybe there is an IE addon staying active and connected after IE is closed
... might it even be easyshare? It probably works in the background connected
to Kodak .. there might be a setting in easyshare to stop that behaviour.

First thing to try is open IE without addons .. and see how that works ..I
suspect it will behave correctly by disappearing from task manager when you
close IE.

Look through your IE addons and disable or remove them.

.. or even go nuclear :)) .. reset IE back to default everything: Tools>
