No prob!


Glad you understand.



I can't try to "HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP" you or even help you
unless I know what your problem is. You've quoted nothing of your
original message, and like most newsgroup participants, I don't save
already-read messages. Since I can't see your original message, I
know nothing of your problem except what I can read in the Subject
line, and since that contains very little information except for an
obvious exaggeration, I can't help you.

Please spell out exactly what your problem is, with clear and
accurate descriptions of what you want to accomplish, what you've
done, and what happens, avoiding exaggeration, and supplying the
exact verbatim text of any error messages you receive.

I had no idea that you weren't reading this on the microsoft.com
site. .


Most of us here avoid that Microsoft web site like the plague. It's the
worst possible way to partiipate here in these newsgroups.


Here is my original post

I'm definitely not a n00b and have been working on Win every day
since 3.1. But this one has me stumped.

A few days ago my system which usually takes 5-10 seconds to shut down
started taking 5 minutes or more.


I've snipped the rest of your post, since I don't have any specific
suggestions regarding your problem, other than to offer the general advice
that there's very good information on shutdown problems here:
