Slow shutdown - no suggestion has helped so far

[Guest]

Dear People reading this,
I have every article on this web site about a slow shutdown. None of them
have helped. Does anyone have any other suggestions that may fix my 10 min.
shutdown? Also, I have a pop up virus that is going undetected by my virus
program. Any thoughts on that? Thanks in advance!

1. This is not a web site. It's a newsgroup.

2. A search of all newsgroups with the search term "slow sutdown" provides 39,500 hits. None of those have helped you?

Well, geez! Sorry for seeking help! I have searched slow shutdown and did
not get that many hits. Also, a lot of them are repetitive! And no, NONE of
them have helped. Thanks for nothing.

Thanks TaueArian, for that web site, but I have tried all of those things in
the past and my computer still isn't shutting down properly. I think it has
something to do with the undetectible pop-up virus that I have. Any idea how
I could clean up a virus that's undetectible?

Thank you!

First, what do you mean by "popup virus"? This could be the source of
your problem.

I mean that I have a virus, worm, trojan, whatever that causes this 1 pop up
to come up on my screen when I start my computer. It connects to the
Internet on its own. So, that's what I mean
