:::: We all have the same problem and the author seems not interested in 
either telling us what to do or fixing it.
It had been said previously that if you properly exit the packet node before 
you close the program, it will close those pesky windows, but in my 
experience that is not the case. On my pc. which is running XP, I need to go 
to the task box (Ctrl,Alt,Delete) to get rid of it.
If there's another answer, I have not seen it offered.
