I have a program called MacroMagic that occasionally will keep my computer
from shutting down (WinXP Pro SP2). On occasion the shutdown process will
not proceed and I have to manually close MacroMagic and then do the shutdown
again, successfully. I tried to run MM in Win98 mode but still have the
problem. How can I avoid/solve this problem?

Have you checked with the product developers' support on this?
I'm not familiar with this software, but you might be able to use a batch
file to shut down the process....or just remember to close it before
shutting down.

Contact the manufactuer, Update the program with one able to run from XP. It
is not an XP problem.
