Recently, for some inexplicable reason, when I close out a program, it remains active in memory. If I open and close Firefox three times in an hour, then go to the Task Manager (ctl-alt-del) under the processes tab, it shows firefox still running three separate times. This is pretty consistent across the open then close applications spectrum.
Anybody have any clue why, when applications are closed, they won't release themselves from memory? I'm not registry or policy edit shy (which is probably why I have this issue in the first place...too many tweaks!!!)
It's really time to do a format and clean install but I'd rather wait a bit longer if possible.
