I have beenonline for a bit, and when I close all programs and select log off from the start menu it does the blinking thing. It is as if there are IE sessions running in the background. When I use task manager I don't see these sessions running. It is very weird. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/blinking-explorer-icon-when-logging-off#post-2638 Thu, 11 Oct 2007 06:25:05 +0000 Ram3L 2638@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>sacopaddler</p> <p>End It From Your Task Manager From The Process Just Make Sure You Don't Touch Any SYSTEM Or Explorer.exe But The Rest Close Them All Does Speed Your PC A Lil Bit Also. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/blinking-explorer-icon-when-logging-off#post-2575 Wed, 10 Oct 2007 07:53:58 +0000 michael 2575@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Oh right =) Now I follow.</p> <p>This happens when you logoff? If the blue bar cover the text as though you selected it appears: This Is Perfectly Normal.</p> <p>--<br /> Mike </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/blinking-explorer-icon-when-logging-off#post-2559 Tue, 09 Oct 2007 21:03:27 +0000 sacopaddler 2559@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>The IE icon blinks as if you single clicked the mouse to highlight it then clicked the desktop to unhighlight the selected icon. It does this ~3-5 times quickly and then logs off. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/blinking-explorer-icon-when-logging-off#post-2421 Sat, 06 Oct 2007 16:43:29 +0000 michael 2421@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Could you please email a screenshot to <a rel=nofollow href='mailto:Michael@wildlamb.com'>Michael@wildlamb.com</a> or explain more fully what you mean to help us divulge a solution to your problem.</p> <p>--<br /> Mike </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/blinking-explorer-icon-when-logging-off#post-2350 Thu, 04 Oct 2007 17:12:53 +0000 sacopaddler 2350@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>I have an XP machine at home with 3 users configured. When I log off from my session my IE icon starts blinking like there are hidden browsers running somewhere in the background. I have Spybot Search and Destroy loaded as well as NAV but they don't seem to come up with anything. Any ideas what might be causing this? </p>
