I have "continue running in background when I close the
main window" is unchecked. Juice seems unaware of the
difference between a user-issued exit request, and
Windows shutting down.

Rather than ask if I want to close it, or just hide it
in the taskbar, it should just quit when the computer's
shutting down. Failing to do so means that Windows
will time out and fail to shut down, if you walk away
from it right after issuing the command or issue the
command remotely.

    Shoulda been more explicit about my version number.

    I'm running Juice 2.2, with the publically available,
    pre-compiled binaries. As an OS, I'm stuck with XP SP2, Pro.

    +1 for this to be fixed. This was the specific reason I
    came here today. Other than that, the s/w is brilliant!
    Good work guys.
