    Hey guys- I am running into a really weird problem.

    Whenever I run VLC or MSN Messenger and close them, they stay running.
    For instance, VLC will continue on playing the movie even after I close it and the screen is gone and everything. I can find both of these programs in the task manager. So far it seems isolated to just these programs.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks so much...
