I have the same problem with Windows Vista and IE 8 (fairly certain it happened 
with IE 7 as well).  Terminating or Terminate/Relaunch leaves behind an 
instance of IE... Lame!

I ended up downloading KillProcess from 
http://www.beyondlogic.org/consulting/processutil/processutil.htm and wrote a 
small bat file to kill all IE instances.  Placed it by my clock on the start 
bar and walla!  I now use it to kill IE in-between flex debugging sessions.

I would really like to know if anyone has a better fix, say, Eclipse actually 
terminating the browser session like it should...
