Flashfxp ghosts

[Paradoxflux]

Sometimes I get a flashfxp session that goes crazy, uses up all the cpu time and isn't really closed when I quit it. The only way I can end it is by cntrl+alt+del and killing the high CPU flashfxp.

I just upgraded there are no more final versions so i guess that's 922. I use athlon 1200 with windows XP professional. Pretty much flash is the only program that does this regularly. It also is annoying because I cannot delete local directories that the ghost flash was using before I quit it.

Its not a really big deal but it is kind of an annoying bug.

PS plz put stealth list on to-do list

obvious what that version is

I've had that happened to me several times before. It never happened in Win98/WinME or Win2k. I don't even recall that happened in WinXP before I apply the SP1 patch but I'm not really sure. All I know is that this has started happening in WinXP so I just figured it's a WinXP issue.
The error.log gets to be around 180mbs big before I realize there's a ghost and I have to go to Task Manager/Processes and kill the FlashFXP.exe that's using 80%+ of the CPU time. In my old box is was quite obvious when this happened as the box got very slow, but now with the new box (P4 2.6Ghz, 1Gb RAM) I never even notice unless when I try to connect to a site and it doesn't let me on because that ghost flashfxp keep hogging the identd server.

Box specs:
Intel P4 2.6Ghz
1GB RAM
Windows XP w/ SP1a
FlashFXP build 922 [Registered]

Open FlashFXP, go to Help menu and click on 'About...', then you'll see a new dialog with your ID number.
