When I try to restart or shut down I keep getting the Program not responding
box and the program is IEEXPLORE.EXE. This happens while I have closed all programs and am at the desktop. Sometimes I have to click the close button a dozen times to get a reboot. I just usually just hit the on off switch after two or three attempts to close down properly.

Well, Internet Explorer's filename is iexplore.exe, not IEEXPLORE.EXE. You might be infected.

I made a typo it should have read IEXPLORE.exe.

When you think that you have closed Internet Explorer, have you looked in the Processes tab in Task Manager to ensure that no instances of it are listed?

If you are using IE7, have you tried running it in its "no add-ons" mode, exited it, and then do a shutdown?
