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?? |

greatgal designs,
32 bit is x86 and 64 bit is x64. C.B. -- It is the responsibility and duty of everyone to help the underprivileged and unfortunate among us.
