shut down program...should not see me?

Hi,

Its weird - but on rare occasions when i go to shut down my pc i'll get a
process shut down window - usually its either iexplore or ctfmon or the
always reliable (or unreliable) norton process (i forget the name - thank
God i switched to pc-cillin).

Anyway, this particular process has caught my attention because it is
called...wait for it..."Shoud Not See Me". Yep, thats right, thats actually
what its called. I have't got a screenie of it - yet.

Does anyone know what this is? Windows bug, spyware, virus?

It's nothing to be concerned about. It comes from something legitimate
and is a programmer's note to him/herself, although I can't remember
what offhand. It's not important. If you are only having shutdown
problems occasionally, that's nothing to worry about either although
you might want to take a look at this site:
