Fully Closing an Application on a Pocket PC

As many owners will find out very quickly, tapping the 'X' at the upper right corner of an application doesn't completely close an application. It simply closes the window, leaving the application happily running in the background taking up valuable memory.

There are a few ways of taking care of this. One is that you periodically go Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory -> Running Programs and then selecting the program and tapping stop. Another is to perform a soft reset. The one that I prefer, however, is one that closes the application when you exit, not letting it sit in memory to be eventually closed with one of the above two methods. You can exit the program directly by tapping CTRL+Q on the soft keyboard. This completely closes the program and removes it from memory as soon as you exit.
