Firefox can take up to 10 seconds to shut down or to detect that KeePass has been closed #60

Closing KeePass without first closing your database (or locking it) can cause KeeFox to fail to notice that KeePass has been closed until 10 seconds have passed. If you shut down Firefox during this time it may continue running for a short while with 100% CPU usage, potentially preventing an immediate restart of Firefox.

This is due to the way that KeeFox communicates with KeePassRPC and I hope to improve most relevant aspects of this communication before 0.9 is released.

So far I've only seen this behaviour on Windows 7 with .Net 3.5 SP1. If anyone spots this on their machine, please let me know your O/S, browser version and .NET version.

Don't think this can happen anymore.
