[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 58943, post: 721988"] These are TCP sessions that haven't expired and chrome has a LONG expiration date, sometimes an hour depending. Also, some sites keep the session open by sending bits of background data. Chrome has a couple of settings you should examine; (Chrome Settings->Advanced->Content->Background Sync) Do not allow recently closed sites to finish sending and receiving data (toggle this on) Also, unpin your chrome icon from taskbar, right click the icon on desktop, select properties, then append the following commands to the properties; --disable-background-networking --disable-component-extensions-with-background-pages --dns-prefetch-disable --no-pings --disable-logging So it may look like this; "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-background-networking --disable-component-extensions-with-background-pages --dns-prefetch-disable --no-pings --disable-logging Re-pin the chrome icon to your taskbar. Now you should NOT see sessions being left open, especially not for hours, like before. [/QUOTE]
