If you are running Guardian then Guardian will obligingly start them up again for you under some conditions, and you will have "ghosts". So if you installed Guardian, then uninstall it, 'cause you don't want this behaviour with Classic.

Don't overlook the fact that some applications may finish upon calling detach, giving the user the illusion that the session is over. But the process itself may not be finished. If there are transactions waiting to finish, the actual detach won't occur immediately. If the application didn't end the transaction[s] then the server will end them eventually, after the keep-alive timeout (usually after about 2 hours).

You aren't telling us enough...like what you're doing and what you are doing it with, for example...
