Parallels VM process continues to run after Quit

After shutting down Parallels 8 virtual machine (no problems or errors) and quitting the Parallels app (no problems or errors), Parallels VM process continues to run, won't quit, must force quit. Why? What needs fixed?

Or do I have to pay for support????

 

Guess I should add 10.6.8 running on a Mac Pro 5,1

 

Same problem here. Running OS X 10.6.8 on a Mid 2011 iMac.

Activity Monitor shows the "Parallels VM" process continuing to run, taking up over 90% of the processor time. It must be force quit to remove it. Restarting and running Parallels again, same problem.

Please help!

 

Same problem

activity monitor shows over 100% cpu for parallels and it and won't quit.

 

bump

anybody????

 

100% cpu solution

What worked for me was going to a command prompt in windows and entering:

netsh winsock reset

i found that in another thread in the parallels forum. should be able to find it by searching the command.

 

Thanx, but I'm not running winders..

 

bump

Still won't quit..

 

Fixed with today's update.
Thanks!
