Hi Alder,
I've had this problem quite a few times. To fix the problem, I unplugged my
computer from the wall, waited about a minute, plugged it back in, turned it
on, and all was fine.
I found that my problem was coming from PestPatrol. I think it did not like
my Windows Media Player, so I uninstalled PestPatrol, and have had no more
problems.

There was no NoClose value. My choices are Default and NoCDBurning.

This should be a per-user setting, but you can try looking in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
for the same NoClose value.

I do not have the option NoClose. The options that I have are Default,
ClassicShell, and NoActiveDesktop. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Look in the right pane for a value called NoClose. If it exists,
double
click it and set it to 0 (zero) or right click it and select Delete.
Log
off/log on to see the change.

I've recently noticed that my computer no longer gives me the Shut
Down
option when I try to close down my computer. When I click on Start,
I
am
given the option to Log Off or Turn Off Computer. WHen I choose Log
Off,
a
window appears asking if I am sure that I want to log off and I am
given
the
option to Log Off or Cancel. When I select Log Off, the system
takes
me
to
the Welcome screen where the user names for my computer are listed.
When
I
select Turn Off Comuter, the computer logs off, shuts down, and
eventually
turns off. This started occurring after I used various virus
cleaners
in
normal and safe mode to get rid of a virus. How can I retrieve the
option
to
Shut Down?
Thanks!
