Process exists after closing Outlook 2007

[J. Rohde]

I have Win7pro x64 RTM running on a OCZ Vertex SSD
When Outlook is closed, it usually leaves a process running in the
background (OUTLOOK.EXE).
When I go to shutdown the PC, I'm alerted that outlook is still running.
I either shut down the process or tell windows to shutdown anyway.

Is this a compatability bug?
Doesn't occur in Vista x86

If you leave it alone, does the process eventually die? Also, have you
installed the latest SP for Office 2007? It improved my Outlook exit times.

Thanks.
The problem seems to have fixed itself - one of the patches probably fixed it.

When I installed Outlook2007 on another PC, the same problem occurred after
the initial install. But all OK now - fully patched.
