When I close a program the coressponding process in the tasl manager does not
close. So If I re open the program I will have two of the same process open.
For example I will outlook.exe process open multiple times eventhough I have
outlook closed.

Do you have any other examples, other than Outlook?
 
Re: Processes do not close

Yes, excel acrobat and quickbooks. Those are the programs I use the most.

Re: Processes do not close

I have the same problem. It also happens with Excel, Word, WordPerfect. For
example, if I close a document I am working on, I cannot open it again
because it's "being used by another user". I have to go into Task Manager
and end process. My computer runs very slow by the end of the day, and I
just added RAM giving me 3G of RAM.

Re: Processes do not close

In my case, the Symantec Event Manager Service was responsible for this
problem. If I stop the service it solves the problem. I have uninstalled
Symantec 360 and I am now using McAfee Security.

Re: Processes do not close

Fenley, I chatted with Symantec tech support. Here's what they said:

Khangenbam(Tue Jul 22 09:01:46 EDT 2008)>Jose, this issue is known issue to
Symantec and our research team is working on this issue.

Khangenbam(Tue Jul 22 09:03:09 EDT 2008)>The new patch will be release
through the LiveUpdate of the Norton program when the resolution is found
out.

Mr. Jose (Tue Jul 22 11:55:39 EDT 2008)>Do you have an estimated time for
resolution?

Khangenbam(Tue Jul 22 09:04:44 EDT 2008)>Jose, I will not be able to tell
you estimated time. Since we do not get the exact estimated time from the
research team. But, do not worry. It will not take long time.

Mr. Jose (Tue Jul 22 11:57:30 EDT 2008)>Ok Khangenbam, thank you for your
assistance. Have a nice day.

Khangenbam(Tue Jul 22 09:05:34 EDT 2008)>You are most welcome.


So, you are right! I really like N360 so I'm gonna hold tight and hope they
issue a patch in the next couple of days.

Re: Processes do not close

Now I have Norton 360, but I've had it for a while and this problem just
started recently??? So don't know why 360 would cause this ... unless it
has to do with an update installed in 360????
