Service Control Manager

[Guest]

Error message is "the application management service terminated with the
following error- The specific module could not be found". I can see an error
message dialog box when I logoff or shut down Windows but it flashes quickly
something about: "....Sw...ver 1.01...DLL....this application failed to
initialize because Windows is shutting down".
