Has anyone here ever had an unresponsive application continue to show as active in the Dock and the "Force Quit" window even after it has been definitely and finally quit? I'm not just talking about Force Quit failing to work here -- I mean it worked, the app doesn't show up in ps or lsof or ActivityMonitor (under "All Processes"), yet Dock still thinks it's there.
This has happened to me a few times with Toast and DiskUtility on another computer, and now it's happened on my Mac mini with the latest version of Mactracker (which, btw, I would not advise anyone to download!). Whatever reason Mactracker is hanging and having to be forced to quit, I find the fact that Dock/Finder can think a program is running when it isn't to be extremely annoying.
