VS 2010 vshost.exe hangs, unable to end process in task manager

Hi,

I am having a problem in Visual Studio 2010 (windows 7) when I try to run my winform application.

It appears to run just fine, no errors of anykind and when I end the application, it exits with 0 code,
and seems good.  But then when I try to ReBuild I get an error that it cant overwrite a .dll because it is in use
by another application.

Sure enough I opened Task Manager and I can see the debug application vshost.exe is actually still running?
and it does not work to End the Process, when I try its like just nothing happens.  The screen flashes for a second
the confirmation prompt disappears and I see the vshost.exe is still there in the processes list.

The only way I have been able to kill the process is by closing VS 2010, sometimes when that doesnt work only
rebooting will kill it.

Note that I have tried setting VS 2010 to break on all exceptions, which made no difference.
