    [2008] App process doesnt end when exited

    The title says it all!
    When I press the exit button (the red X) the process is still running in the system manager. So opening it more than once will end up meaning it will slowly start crashing the computer (if you don't restart).

    Any ideas

    If you put a FormClosing event in place

    Code:
        Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
        ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing
            MessageBox.Show("Exiting")
        End Sub
    and click the red cross, do you see the message box appear?

    Do you have any threads or background workers that could still be doing work?

    Hi,
    sorry for the slow reply, I'll explain a little more about the app.
    What it does is basically open pages on firefox. there is also a WMP plugin and a clock/alarm thing (multi-function learning new stuff app really)

    Thanks for your quick response
