Quicken Process Does Not Close

I have Quicken Basic 2005 and Windows XP SP2 and every time I open Quicken
the Task Manager window shows a qw.exe process. This process, however does
not terminate when I close the program. Since I rarely reboot my system,
every time I open Quicken , a new qw.exe starts and I have seen as many as 4
qw.exe processes running. Each of these take ~43,000 kb, so my machine gets
slower and slower. I asked the question at the Intuit site and the response
naturally suggested that it was a Windows XP problem.

Is this a know issue and is there a way to terminate these processes when I
close Quicken without going through the Task Manager? This is annoying.

All help is gratefully appreciated.

Try Intuit again.
If intuit can not help, uninstall then reinstall Quicken.

Otherwise since this is a Windows Update newsgroup, you should ask this in a
Windows XP newsgroup:
