My computer taking 10-15 minutes to shut down after SP2 installation. This
ohly occurs after using EARTHLINK email software. And it only happens when
the administrator (me) is operating, my limited user has no problem when she
is using EARTHLINK for her email.. I read on
http://aumha.org/win5/a/shtdwnxp.php that a user had success modifying their
NVIDIA software, but I do not understand why my limited user is not having
shutdown delay. We are both using the same software.
