Having an unusual problem. Noticed it one day while
trying to do a restart. During the shut down a message
box appeared indicating that my email program(outlook)
was not closed and did I want to close it. It did this
at least ten times!!! Upon further investigation I've
discovered that not only outlook, but iexplore and on
occassion winword remain open in the processes window
found in the task manager. Apparently, although I am
closing the programs properly, they continue to remain
open as processes, one open process for each time I open
the program during a normal days use, sometimes as many
as 15 to 20 separate open process of this one program.
Have found nothing on the web site to use as a fix for
this. All these open processes are sucking up my
memory!!! I have to do an end process on each one of
them to get them closed. HELP!!!!!!!
 
i would scan for trojans or viruses, check out a web site
call darn it. ya might find info.
