I have my spam filtering program set to load on startup... but I'm having
some problems with it because windows does not properly close the program on
shutdown/logoff; it seems like it simply forces the process to quit. Is there
a way that I can specify that Windows should close certain programs prior to
shutdown? Something akin to the startup tab in msconfig, but for shutdown?

It would depend on how you shut it down manually. A logoff script could find
the window, send the keystrokes to close it.

How do I create a logoff script?
