Closing a window with php

Hi everyone,
I have a php script that updates a site from a remote server(my computer) with the use of the Windows Task Scheduler. But what happens is the script runs in IE but the window stays open. This is a problem because when the task is going to run again, the browser is still up and it will not run the task. is there a way that I can close the window using php?
TIA
Deric

Always nice to tell people how you fixed it in case somebody else has the same problem later on.

I have found that you should just use the task scheduler to run a PHP script in a command window, rather than running the browser to run the script.
