Resolved IE still running even though all windows are closed!

hi i am having this problem.. whenever i launch an internet explorer, after i closed the windows, it is still running in the background and i had to go to task manager to end it.. if i launch 5, 5 instance of the process will still be there and it is accumulative!! its eating my memory if i dun manually end task the process..

anyone had this problem before? how do i solve it?

 

to elaborate more, for example i launch 2 IE browser there will be 2 "iexplorer.exe" running right? i close the 2 browser, the 2 "iexplorer.exe" is still there.. then i re-launch another 2 IE browser total there will be 4 "iexplorer.exe" in the task manager and so on... i notice this when i realise my computer starting to get slower and slower if i used my computer for long time.. then i look at my task manager and saw 10+ "iexplorer.exe" process..

any help would be appreciated..

 

ok the SIW software hangs whenever i tried to run it.. anyway my system is as follows:

Acer Aspire M5641
Intel Core 2 Quad Processor Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz
RAM 4GB
ATI Radeon HD4670 512MB

Running on Window Vista 32-bit..

 

ok i will follow.. thanks..

 

Install Firefox

Its an easy solve. Just install Firefox and all your problems will disappear. The last good version of IE was IE6 SP2 and since then it has gone downhill. I used to have the same problems as you. IE would crash a window or would leave processes running even though I closed IE and if I had several connections going at once it would just get worse until I had to close IE, go into task manager and kill all running IE processes and then start all over again. I finally got fed up and switched to Firefox and have not had a problem since. You can install and run Firefox along with IE with no problems. You can also make it your default browser. Good bye IE!

 

Hi guys, thanks for the reply.. it seems that after i have run malwarebyte, when i observer my ie in my task manager it doesnt have any problem already.. consider it solved.. thanks!
