Visual Studio - Prevent stopping debugging from closing Internet Explorer

When I start debugging my web application in Visual Studio 2008, a new Internet Explorer window opens. When I finish debugging, that new window, along with all previously-open IE windows, will be closed.

I'm tired of losing all open websites whenever I debug my app. Please, help me to find a solution!

Whenever you "run" a web app from visual studio it will, as you say start an instance of a web browser (how else will you use your application?) If you dont want this to happen you would be best to set your application up within IIS, then when you want to debug build, start a web browser, browse to localhost/App then within Visual Studio manually attach the process to the web browser instance. That way when you stop debugging the browser will stick around.
