Any ideas why Vue would do this?

Vue is full of glitches - did you email e-on?

not yet, just wondered if anyone else had the same issue and if they'd solved it.

Strange, Vue is there 3 times. What happens when you end the processes? Does it work?

You probably should, even if you get feedback here. Yeah, it's happened to me once or twice, I just end the processes. I think that when you restart it after it crashes, and it askes you to go into compatability mode, if you do, it starts a different process, instead of re-opening the crashed one.

ok, here is what has happened: Did Vue update to latest release. Restarted Vue. Norton now asks if I would like to permit Vue access to the outside world. (does this everytime I start Vue) When I close Vue it stays in TM. Cannot end process, it won't budge. Leave computer on and go back to Vue the next day. When done I close Vue. Check TM, another one has appeared. Open and close Vue again just to check, and another one in TM. Can't end any of them. I think it is more related to Norton than it is Vue, but I thought I would check here. I will email e-on too though.

That's odd - Norton never asks me if I want Vue to connect -

ok, it was norton all along. I pulled out anything to do with Vue in Nortons firewall, next time I started Vue Norton asked again if it was ok to permit Vue, and it now works. According to the programmers at Norton, some programs replace the .exe file when they update the program, if this happens Norton can see this as being different and not use the old rule for that program. But when it comes to adding the rule it finds a rule for Vue there and doesn't replace it. I don't properly understand this, but it is sorted now.
