Under some configurations, Task Manager may hang on Windows Vista OS when a user ejects the CD drive running KeyArmor prior to the defined safely eject procedure.

The secure data drive is properly un-mounted when Eject CD is selected. The proper way to safely eject a KeyArmor device is to choose Logout from either the KeyArmor interface (application window) or right-click the tray) safely ejects the device.
