Strange Message on Shutdown...!

[Guest]

Sometimes I get an strange message while trying to shut down or reboot. The
message says that it is trying to shut down a program that does not appear in
the task manager.

The applications is XPCOM:Event Viewer or Recieiver. I have fixed the
webpage with the image on it. I would like to know it XPCOM is a Microsoft
app. You can view the message at:

I want to know if anyone is watching me on a network or just what it is. Any
info on this matter will be appreciated.

Thanks,

xpcom:eventreceiver seems to be related to Firefox/Mozilla.

XPCOM:EventReceiver: firefox.exe

XPCOM:EventReceiver:Mozilla.exe

xpcom.dll has something to do with Mozilla Spellchecker.
