    Very often, when I close Adobe After Effects (CS5.5), the process still run,
    and with it the window of the program, though not working, cover the desktop. Is there any reason why this happen?

    I’ve noticed that as well- it takes some time on my machine but they shut down after 1 min or so.

    One common cause is that third-party software (including some video drivers) hold on to the process for a while.
