No, not always, although I have seen them show up on occasion as a defunct
process when I give a ps -aux command. When that happens it is not a transitory
state either but will persist until I kill the process with a kill -9 command..

Other symptoms I have noted, and should point out, is that there have been
occasions when I tried to dismount the USB drive, neither ps nor lsof have
reported anything amiss, but the umount command would still be refused with a
"Device Busy" message. Sometimes however just lsof would report open files
remained, and I will kill the associated process despite the fact that ps was
not showing it. Sometimes that works, sometimes not.

I know that the only thing I had done, in these cases, was to run
FirefoxPortable or ThunderbirdPortable under PortableApps, all under Wine, and
all were "closed" . Nothing else could/should have been using the device, and
simply waiting for awhile would not change this...  When I can't find a process
to kill, at that point my only option has been to reboot and hope that the
shutdown process would safely dismount the USB drive...
