Whenever I close a Win-OS2 application, my system slows down to
a crawl.  I have Watchcat installed and when I activate it, it shows 
me the old Win-OS2 VDM is still running, and usually using between
25-75% of my idle CPU.  The system activity monitor also flatlines
at the top of it's scale.
Killing the VDM through Watchcat alleviates the problem. 

I've had a look through my win-os2 settings but I can't decide which 
of the settings I should alter to correct the problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated
