IExplore.exe remains in process list even after browser is closed

[Harry Matsumoto]

I have a problem with Internet Explorer. Even after I
close Internet Explorer, IEXPLORE will remain in the
process list. I have to do an end process to remove
IEXPLORE from the process list. I would appreciate any
help or suggestions.

Thanks, Harry

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
