RUNDLL32.EXE

[Andrew Boyd]

When I shut down my computer, I recieve a "Not
Responding" box on the RUNDLL32.EXE file.

I was recently attacked by spywar, and I am still
cleaning it up, is this in a result of this?

Can you playese help me?

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Some program is not terminating properly, it's not rundll.exe, but rather an
application on the system that is invoking it to run a library file. Try
manually shutting down running applications and processes (hit
ctrl+shift+escape and use task manager) before initiating shutdown to see if
you can discover which is the culprit.

See if the troubleshooters from MVP Jim Eshelman can help as well, as he has
a list of known issues:
