Task Manager Shut Down disabled
On the Task Manager Menu Bar, there are: File, Options, View, Shut Down and
Help.
The Shut Down menu contains:
* Stand By
* Hibernate
* Turn Off
* Restart
* Log Off (User Name)
* Switch User
Some of the above items may be unavailable (grayed out) depending on Group
Policies, et cetera.
For example.
NoClose removes access to Stand By, Hibernate, Turn Off, Restart and Log
Off (User Name) from the Shut Down menu in Task Manager, but leaves the
menu.

[[Prevents users from shutting down or restarting Windows. This setting
removes the Shut Down option from the Start menu and disables the Shut Down
button on the Windows Security dialog box, which appears when you press
CTRL+ALT+DEL. This setting prevents users from using the Windows user
interface to shut down the system, although it does not prevent them from
running programs that shut down Windows. If you disable this setting or do
not configure it, the Shut Down menu option appears, and the Shut Down
button is enabled. Note: It is a requirement for third-party applications
with Windows 2000 or later certification to adhere to this setting.]]

If using Classic Logon the Task Manager will not show the Shut Down menu.
To verify what type of Logon you are using, go to the Control Panel | User
Accounts | Change the way users log on or off. If the Welcome Screen is not
checked then you are using the Classic Logon, there for no Shut down menu
will not be present for the Task Manager.
I have no idea if any of the above changes if on a domain.

Turn the Welcome screen on...
1. In Control Panel, click User Accounts.
2. Click Change the way users log on or off.
3. Click the Use the Welcome screen to place a check mark in the check box.
4. Click OK.

Can you tell me what's happened - Shutdown button from Task Manager
has just disappeared (only these option I got => FILE, OPTION, VIEW,
WINDOWS, HELP. It's not about welcome screen and it's not about
clicking the very top of the task managers box. I'm confused and I
don't know what to do to solve this problem.
Operating system is of course Windows XP sp2 - if you know something
let me know.
