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...
