Comment (by jonny_11):

 Only TorBrowser can start tor.exe process on my OS. After shutting down
 TB, tor.exe is not shutting down. It's still running independent (not as
 child process of TB) and keep occupying memory after TB is closed. TB and
 tor.exe are added to my firewall whitelist. AV is MS Security Essentials
 with TB directory added as excluded from interfering. How can I do some
 testst to identify the problem?
