Re: rundll32.exe won't shutdown at reboot or shutdown - XP PRO

Saneria,

I have no idea who Don is, ergo I had no idea WTF you were posting about.

Now I do.

Most Rundll32.exe problems are caused by malware/scumware/spyware, whatever
you want to call it.

Have a look at this...

What's the suspicious Rundll32.exe process

Also you need more than one antiscumware program. Ad-Aware is OK, but it
doesn't find everything.

Visit these sites. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are really good.
Download, install, run, update and run again; one or all. They are all
good, FREE utilities. Make sure you update every program, even if you
just downloaded it. You must have the latest updates. Without updates,
you have a gun without ammo. You also need to use more than one
anti scumware program. One program will *not* catch everything.
