Windows XP takes a loooong time to shutdown. Is there anytyhing I can do
about it. This is on my wife's computer. Mine was taking a long time to
shutdown and somebody on the message board told me how to fix it. Well, it
worked but I must not have saved the message. I can't find it.

Can anybody help me?

Usually caused by a program failing to close. Check in task manager to see
what is running.

Seeing as how you thanked Thee Chicago Wolf for helping you solve the problem,
you may be referring to his post about half way down in this thread.
