Use CTRL+Q to completely close your programs

By default, Windows Mobile does not close applications when you tap the 'X' at the upper right corner of an application. The program disappears from the main screen but keeps running in the background.
There are two ways of taking care of this. One is that you periodically go to Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory -> Running Programs and then selecting the program and tapping stop. You can also exit the program more directly by tapping CTRL+Q on the soft keyboard. This completely closes the program and removes it from memory.
