Default Problem quitting excel when it is used by ASP.NET application

Hi

I have a question about quitting excel.exe when it is used by browser to
display the excel file from within asp.net application.

Currently, my company is using aspose excel object which opens a session of
excel within internet explorer session to display the excel file to the
user. The object can open the file either within the browser, or it can
actually open an excel session on the user's workstation. If browser is
used, when user clicks on Back button after reviewing the file, Excel.exe
remains running in the process tab in Task Manager. This then prevents the
user from utilizing any other excel files by trying to open them in the
excel, rather then browser. That is, until the user has closed browser and
restarted the explorer.

Any suggestions on what I might do to force the excel to close down once the
Back button is clicked?

Thanks

Tom
