application doesn't quit but stays in tray

Question

i'm writing a small irc client my last problem was solved but now i've a new one. when i quit the client i close all streams close the socket and finally shut the socket down. then i close the application with Application.Exit(); but it isn't gone then but remains in the system tray. any idea what went wrong? maybe a need destructors? but the garbage collector should delete the remaining content shouldn't it? any idea?

I had the same problem. Try Form.Close()

Also make sure you remove the icon from the tray. A classic problem is that the application exits but the icon remains. If this is happening you will notice the icon disappears if you move the cursor over it.

Make sure all connections are closed and all threads have been stopped.
