Hi!
I have a problem with IE since about 2 years now. IE does not close/exit correctly, i have always to do a system reboot!
IE 9 worked fine, never had a problem with this version. Since v10 and now v11 i cannot close IE completely. If i close the open tabs and exit IE, the program window closes, but there are still one or more 'iexplore.exe *32' processes running in the background (with massive RAM consumption - non growing). I always try to kill the open process(es), with no luck, it will not exit! I can restart IE again and can use it, but after exiting the hanged processes are still running. So i have always to do a system restart several times a day. This is unacceptable!
I tried following things till now to get rid of the problem (nothing worked!):
- starting/using IE 32bit with/without addons, IE 64bit (forced mode) with/without addons.
- un-/reinstalling Flash v10/v11/v12/v13/v14/v15
- trying to kill 'iexplore.exe' and 'iexplore.exe *32' with "Windows Task Manager", "Process Explorer", "Process Hacker", "System Explorer", "Advanced Process Termination", "taskkill.exe", "pskill.exe","killprocess.exe", "process.exe"
My PC:
Toshiba Satellite L670D - Win 7 Ultimate SP1 x64 - IE 11.0.9600.17280
IE Addons:

DivX Web Player Object
