Windows has all sorts of memory problems anyway.  :)

But seriously, it is the responsibility of the programmer to see that
his code shuts down cleanly. 99.9% of operating systems today have the
little X for shutting down the window, in fact 99.9% of all programs 
today have the close/exit/quit/X  option for shutting down the app, so 
Mr. Code better be taking that into consideration rather than expecting 
the end user to decipher how he should shut the app down.
