If you have a waitbar that you are finished with, close() its handle. The handle can be returned when you first create the waitbar:

h = waitbar(x,'message');

then you would close(h) when you are done with it.

I think you should delete it instead of closing it as suggested in:

If you don't want it to run period, just edit the function that creates it and comment out all instances of waitbar. If you want to fancify it make the waitbar optional.
