Prevent System Reboot

Uninstalled a certain program and at the end of install got a message saying
that the system will
reboot and to press OK when I'm ready. Now I have other apps that i have
running and can't shutdown
for a while. So right now my only option is to move the window out of the
way nd continue my work.
But is there some other way i can get rid of the window without shuting down
the computer. Such as
some registry entry that will prevent computer from shutting down.

The app in question is Logitech keyboard driver.

Thank You

Hi,
You don't have to hit OK, cancel it. Reboot when you can.

When an install or uninstall requires a reboot to complete, that means
that the system is in an inconsistent state until after the reboot.
That's why you should never have any applications running when you do an
install or uninstall. At least this uninstall process was considerate
enough to ask whether you were ready to reboot. Not all do.
