Default My Waittokillservice is gone


I just got my laptop last week Thursday with Vista on it which is all new to
me and put all the software I needed virus protector, spyware terminator and
comodo firewall. I believe I remember seeing in one of the scans
waittokillservice and I think I accidently deleted it in the scan. Now my
computer is taking forever to shut down and went looking for a solution and
found that I needed that waittokillservice to have it shut down a little
faster than about 3 minutes and when I looked for it it is gone. Is there
anything I can do about getting that back?? I didn't get a reinstall CD with
this laptop so am hoping there is some other way of getting it. Any ideas??

sure I don't mess anything up.

LOL ok I see the system type but it says 32 bit not x64 or x86 it doesn't
have one for 32 I must be dumb or blind or both but it isn't showing
either of them... I think it is probably the 64 but still not sure.
Thank you for all your help you are being awesome at answering.
