Removing apps from dock?

[shakeman0]

I can't get any of the apps off the dock. I've tried clicking and dragging them outside the dock and a little cloud of smoke appears near the mouse cursor. But then, When I release the app, it just pops back to the dock. I have tried dragging it to the trash too.


Any ideas?

Are those apps running? You can't remove them from the dock if they are running.

Yep, that worked!!

I didn't think that they were running.... Weird....

there should be a little white dot under any apps that are running
