avscan

The avscan program comes from Ubuntu universe repositories...

Anyway, now I've seen it happens *whenever* I 1) open a shell window, 2)
launch a program from it and then 3) close the shell window (causing the
program to end as well).

I tried with gedit, glchess and other programs: always when I close the parent 
shell window, the system monitor still lists the "ghost" child processes.
The ps command doesn't list any of them.
