Hi,
when you close the browser the Flash Player instance get killed and with it the socket connection to SmartFoxServer.

This is what normally happens. Sometimes however browsers don't behave exactly like that (IE for example) and the connection might stay open.
In that case SmartFoxServer has an idle timeout that attempts to shut down the connection after a while.
The parameter is called <MaxIdleTime> and you can change it in the config.xml file
