For the popup to be remove you need to add a close handler when the date is selected like so:

{code}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" 
			   xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" 
			   xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx" 
			   minWidth="955" minHeight="600">
	<fx:Script>
		<![CDATA[
			import mx.controls.DateChooser;
			import mx.events.CalendarLayoutChangeEvent;
			import mx.managers.PopUpManager;
			
			private var dc:DateChooser;
			
			public function openChooser(event:MouseEvent):void {
				dc = new DateChooser();
				dc.yearNavigationEnabled = true;
				PopUpManager.addPopUp(dc,this,true);
				PopUpManager.centerPopUp(dc);
				focusManager.setFocus(dc); 
				dc.addEventListener(CalendarLayoutChangeEvent.CHANGE, closeChooser);
			}
			
			public function closeChooser(event:CalendarLayoutChangeEvent):void {
				PopUpManager.removePopUp(dc);
			}
		]]>
	</fx:Script>
	
	<mx:LinkButton id="lb" label="choose a date" click="openChooser(event)" />
</s:Application>
{code}

> Compile and run this application pasted below in debug mode. Click on any control in the DateChooser popup and freeze the application. Change 'modal' param in addPopUp function to false; and application will not freeze. Scratch head, then possibly address?
