My issue is when my program is shut down with either form1.close or form1.dispose(), I can hear my computer fan spinning and when I ctrl-alt-del, Task Manager says my program is still in memory sucking up 50% of the cpu after it closes...
Of course, I turned to the great and mighty Google and right now, my head is pretty much swimming. So I guess in my code I was suppose to "dispose()" all objects once I was done with them. But first off, I don't really understand what constitutes an "object". From what I've been reading in my beginners book, everything in VB.net is considered an object... I've read that some objects have "references" that need to be disposed of. Is there a way to quickly and easily find out what "objects" are stuck in memory, or did not dispose of correctly when the program closed? I have no idea.... none whatsoever... how to proceed with finding where the problem may lay. If I were to dispose all of the objects in my program, my CLOSE sub would be as long as my entire project... I'm so confused! Just a helpful link in the right direction might be all I need.
