I'm seeing the same behavior on a console app.  I also see the gui
tester repeat the tests several times, I'm assuming once for each agent
running.

Bug description:
I am using nunit 2.5.8.10295.

I'm using nunit to do unit testing for an ASP.NET MVC 2 project.  I have a solution with two projects, one being the actual application, and the other being the unit tests.  I use the nunit.exe gui to run the unit tests.  I invoke the tests by opening up the dll produced by building the project.  Everything runs fine, but I've noticed that every run spins off a new instance of nunit-agent.exe.  This instances never shutdown, and slowly gobble away at system resources and degrade usability substantially.  It seems to me that nunit.exe should shut down nunit-agent.exe when it is no longer needed, correct?
