Slow Shutdown.

[Donald Parvis]

I've used this same computer for seven years. Windows XP SP2. I upgraded my
CA antivirus to v2008 and Zone Alarm firewall to v7.8.408.000. Now when I
shutdown it takes about 4 minutes versus about 30 seconds before.
Also the machine automatically shut down; now I get a screen which says "it
is now safe to turn off you computer.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Donald Parvis
