detach db failed due to ghost cleanup

hi
i'm trying to detach a database. However i cant as the db is in use. I can
kill any user processes but not the non-user process 'ghost cleanup'. Because
of this the db is in use and the detach cannot occur.
I realise what the process 'ghost cleanup' is there for - but surely it
shouldn't be in use permanently? (db options such as shrink db are not set on
this db). There any safe way to disable?
Try putting the database in single user mode by using the ALTER DATABSE with
SET SINGLE_USER mode option and then try detaching.
