Default LW (Pro) with XP SP1

I too use LW Pro 4.9.11 with XP SP1 and get the same problem you do (and I also have Yahoo's Anti-Spy - more about this later).

I find that if I run Norton System Works (2004) "Windoctor" or "One Button Fixup" after an LW session then windows will close normally, if I don't then windows will crash (freeze up) before it can close down.

I suspect that during an LW session, which can last up to 60 hours, a lot of "memory debris" builds up, both in actual and temporary memory, this slows the closing of other programs, e.g. Norton Personal Firewall (ccApp.ex), hence the crash.

Mind you, someone else may have a better explanation because I have based the above purely on my own observation.

PS. Yahoo Anti-Spy gives a false positive with LW.
