What do you need the typelib for ? I suggest you try
the example in the doc of com_load_typelib, just
comment out the call to this particular function and smile.
(Background: com_load_typelib apparently does not
attach to a running instance, so you get orphans en masse.)
Generally you have to quit COM server objects with its
respective method. For MS Word this is Application.Quit
($word->Quit in PHP when the instance was created using
$word = new COM('Word.Application');
But for just using a COM object with the known vocabulary
you never need to call com_load_typelib. This call is used
by IDEs to show the interface to the user so (s)he can
learn the possibilities (Object browser or similar).

leaves it running indefinately. How does one kill this process when the
