I'll guess that you are using a PC, and I'll guess further that you are
probably using WinME?

There are some known issues with Win* and quitting E-Loader. It's been a
tough one to tackle, but I just recently found what I believe may be the
cause. There will be a new version of E-Loader coming out soon - I can't say
exactly when yet - and hopefully it will fix those kinds of problems once
and for all.

Instead of restarting your computer you may be able to kill the process
using the Windows Task Manager. E-Loader may not show up in the Application
list, but if you see java.exe, javaw.exe, jview.exe or wjview.exe in the
Processes list you can try killing that (you'll only see one of these -
which one depends on which version of Java you are using).

Sorry I don't have any better workarounds for that specific problem right
now. Other than noting that it doesn't do that on my Win2000 system. I think
Win98/SE is more reliable than ME also. At least that's my experience in
regards to E-Loader.
