How did you run the python script?  At the command prompt (DOS
prompt), or in IDLE?  Either way, once the python script terminates it
sounds like it is correctly shutting down and closing all the windows
it opened.

Which version of rpy (or rpy2) are you using?  There have been issues
with interactive plots, but I personally have not kept track of when
this was fixed (but I think it has been).  In my own scripts I just
write the image to a PNG or PDF file and don't bother with the
graphics window.
