Found out that the the program that is crashing when I log out is
plasma-desktop.  Not sure if it's related or not.

I've seen behaviour that I *think* is what you're describing.  I've seen a few 
applications remain in the task bar, but I'm almost certain that it's simply a 
bug in the plasmoid.  Any kind of update to the window list in the task bar 
(e.g. moving a window onto another screen and back) removes the phantom task 
bar entry.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with the problem.  Do you suspect anything in
particular, or does it feel like a KDE bug?

 Ever since the upgrade to KDE 4.7 several weeks ago, a lot of programs
 seem
 to hang in the Task Manager after I close them.  They will remain for a
 long
 time or until I open another application.  I also have an occasional
 application crash when I shutdown.  Unfortunately, the crash message
 tells
 me nothing of what program is crashing and I'm not sure if it's related.

 My question for everyone is regarding the programs hanging around since
 it's
 a regular thing and is most likely the cause of the latter.  Is this a
 common thing or do I have some conflict somewhere, or a service that
 isn't
 happy?

 I run pacman -Suy almost daily and use Firefox, Thunderbird, Kopete,
 Yakuake, VirtualBox, Terminal, Kwrite, and BOINC on a regular bases.  I
 put
 my system to sleep nightly and shutdown at the end of the week.
 DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus network !netfs crond alsa @cupsd @boinc @samba).

 I hope that's enough info.

 Thank you

  What you mean under "Task Manager" ? The thing is i have similar problem

after update to KDE 4.7 - some programs exist in task panel some time, after
I closed them. For example after i closing firefox i can see it's shortcut
in task panel.

I am referring to the same thing.  The Task panel is named Task Manager.
After I close an application, the space it would take on the panel remains
and the icon changes to the X no icon image (I think it's the xorg
icon/logo).  After this happens, the only way to get rid of it is to open
and close another application or to wait a long time.

Do you think Desktop Search, Nepomnk or akonadi would have anything to do
with this?  I had them disabled for a long time then enabled them after the
4.7 update since I was constantly being nagged about them being disabled.
Would rather not have them at all in my opinion.

I don't think it's search systems behaviour, i had disabled them about a 
year ago(when system was installed) and never used them. I was under 
impression that i'm just the only one lucky with this issue, now it 
seems that it's a bug which became visible after update.

I am referring to the same thing.  The Task panel is named Task Manager.
After I close an application, the space it would take on the panel remains
and the icon changes to the X no icon image (I think it's the xorg
icon/logo).  After this happens, the only way to get rid of it is to open
and close another application or to wait a long time.

Do you think Desktop Search, Nepomnk or akonadi would have anything to do
with this?  I had them disabled for a long time then enabled them after the
4.7 update since I was constantly being nagged about them being disabled.
Would rather not have them at all in my opinion.
