Event Viewer Warning

[MartoonX]

Every time I shut down the pc the event viewer logs the the following
warning.
What could it be?

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1517
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: MYPC
Description:
Windows saved user MYPC\me registry while an application or service was
still using the registry during log off. The memory used by the user's
registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no
longer in use.

This is often caused by services running as a user account, try configuring
the services to run in either the LocalService or NetworkService account.

I get this on several machines - seems to have arrived with an MS patch
several quarters ago (and affects Win2k users too, iirc). Does not
appear to do any harm, and no, you won't find any services running on
the user account.

I assume MS will fix it, one day.
