Alt + F4 will close the top window, repeat as needed. <Windowskey>
+ d will minimize everything, then you can close groups.

I don't know that this is any easier than G. Morgan's suggestion, but it
is an alternate way to close multiple programs. Open Task Manager and
select the Applications tab. Select the apps you want to close
(shft-click or ctrl-click for multiple selections), and hit the End Task
button. This method is more selective and allows leaving some programs
running, if desired.

Google for a program called "CloseAll". It's only 36K and doesn't need
installation.
when you click on it, it closes ALL the open windows.

I'm asking myself "What are these WINDOWS"? Do you mean someone
installed applications that keep running at startup? If so then find
out what they are and eradicate them.

You might not be aware of a big problem with your quoting style.
The way your newsreader is doing it, when someone else follows
up, it looks like you *said* what you actually only quoted.

The problem is that Windows Live Mail 2011 (version 15) has a
quoting style that is completely broken. Unfortunately that poses
a painful choice to you: either fix every quote manually, or get
a real newsreader such as Gravity, Xananews, and Forte Agent (to
mention some that come to mind at the moment). OR, if you really
want WLM, some say that WLM 14 will serve; see "SC Tom" below.

update 2011-04-02: I've seen a newsgroup posting claiming you
can un-break WLM 15 by installing and using an Autohotkey script:

Thanks for your consideration!

Along with what the others have suggested, you can uninstall
WLM 2011 and install WLM 2009 instead, which handles quoting
a lot better:
