virtualbox.org

Hi all,

on my Windows XP professional SP2 host, VirtualBox sometimes stays in the task list after shutting down the guest AND xVM (Process Virtualbox.exe, VBoxSVC.exe) and have to be removed manually.

Does somebody else have this problem, too?

This is a quirk of the fact that these are a COM service and sometimes hang around. They do eventually timeout and remove themselves, but you can just delete them through task manager.
