Flock does not close properly
Flock does not close properly. It disappears from the screen, but is still running and using up 99% of the CPU and I have to close it through Task Manager. This doesn't happen every time, but often enough. I'm using Flock 2.0 and it says there are no updates available....
I’m annoyed

Inappropriate?Hi SaladGoat,
This is likely caused by an extension or plugin that isn't playing nicely with Flock. Try going to Tools / Add-ons to see what extensions and plugins you have installed. The CoolIris extension from PicLens and Google's Video Chat plugin are two that are known to cause stability problems in Flock, but there may be others as well. You might try running Flock in "safe mode" to see if that helps. That will temporarily disable your extensions, which will help determine whether they are part of the problem.
Hope that helps,

Inappropriate?The only extension I use is NoScript. And even though I know that, I still just went and looked. Yes, only NoScript. And I use that (along with a few other add-ons) with Firefox as well and I have no problem with Firefox shutting down. This issue with Flock not shutting down properly has only arisen since the last update of Flock. Previously (and I've been using it for about a year now) it has always behaved as expected.
Also, since it doesn't hang every time, I'm not going to mess around with constantly rebooting in Safe Mode. I was just hoping there was a fix or, at least that I could alert the programmers to the problem and they can fix it in the next release.
Thanks.
