wmplayer.exe task not quitting

Just recently, when I close Windows Media Player, the 'wmplayer.exe' process in the Task Manager still remains, and I can't open a new movie until it disappears, which it does after a while. The length it takes to disappear seems to be proportionate with how long the movie was playing for... Any ideas what could be causing this? Additionally, when I attempt to shutdown / restart the comp (while the 'wmplayer.exe' process is still running), Windows reports that it's waiting for the 'DDE Server Window' to close? Once 'wmplayer.exe' does disappear, it'll shutdown / restart fine... Both Newtwork DDE processes are disabled.
